[QUOTE="MikeFromMesa, post: 1740860, member: 305741"] Well, yes but ... I first must say that I am not an expert in this area and, although I am thoroughly familiar with network software in general, I am not a "hardware guy". Having said that ... It is obvious that any data transfer is limited by the slowest connection. But a theoretical 1.3 Gb/sec transfer in the lab is probably much more like 600 or 700Mb in the "real world" and if that is true, then the Gb wired connection is not the limiting factor, the wireless part is. Unless I am wrong in my calculations, of course. then again perhaps Apple's Gb LAN connection really is not up to 1 Gb but slower. How much slower than wireless AC can it be? [/QUOTE]
