So when you only have, lets say, 300 kbps as a baseline download.. And you rock a wireless B or G router, you're looking at roughly 100-175 kbps download. Whereas, in theory, the N will be pushing out fast enough to achieve 300kbps. It wont, but it'll be closer than G or B, plus it's the next big thing for wireless, and it is actually incredibly fast..
