Good Wireless Network Systems

I've never had any latency issues before on my WRT54G and WMP54G on my previous systems. I understand that my Wireless-N adapter doesn't have good latency, however, I plugged the WMP54G into my system and that too recieves terrible latency. Anyway, could anybody reccomend me a good stable wireless network solution without these issues?
I still own a WRT54G, perhaps it needs to be upgraded?
Thanks,
San

San, I have discovered there are no good wireless solutions.
Wireless will always be slower than being hard wired to the router. I have no idea why this must be so, there is only one extra layer of code, it isn't complex, and the speed of light in air or copper makes no difference over the distance in an office building let alone a house.
There are better and worser solutions and I have been informed that N band was a better one, sorry to hear it isn't.

I made a typo. My Wireless-N Adapter. Terrible quality products *tear*
I made a CAT6 cable! I wonder if I can make another without it being in the way

I would like to start off by saying I am rather hardcore anti Dlink. I have hated their consumer routers and such for years. I am a Netgear/linksys fan.
However when i went looking for a wireless N solution the netgear was getting horrible reviews, of the RMA type and the linksys wasn't much better and just bloody expensive.
So on a whim I tried Dlink's gamerslounge DGL4500. I have to admit so far It has impressed me. The security settings are as indepth or more so then my previous netgear rangemax and it's wireless speeds are pretty darn good. I have thus far experienced little to no wireless latency issues out of it for gaming or streaming. Mind you the primary purpose of it for me was for a Gigabit lan and a 300mbs wireless to stream media to my PS3. So far it works quite well.

What do you use to recieve the connection with?

Wireless connection is built into my PS3, I believe it is a G standard. Again I don't know how applicable this is to you. I was simply pointing out that I do steam a good bit of content mostly hd across an N network without issue. As for actual N receivers I couldn't say if any are decent. I just found that for me I have yet to overload a PS3's wireless or bottle neck on the Dlink N router.

Oh. I'm now assuming you play FFXI on the PS3. I see, alright. I thought it was just for your computer.

Regretfully ffxi on the PS3 is a wash. Given SE never updated it to handle blutooth keyboards, so you can't type in game..which is utterly stupid.
However any other online game suffers no latency issues.

Ah, never saw this post. Late responseee
Can't you use a regular non bluetooth wireless keyboard? Or is all wireless technology with keyboards done through bluetooth?

Most wireless keyboards still use a USB interface on their send/receive unit. Those are not Bluetooth.
I have no idea what this means on a PS3 though.
