>From what I was told is that 2.0 is rated at 300. I have a Draft N at home. DLink USB DWA-125 with a DLink DIR 615. Both of these are actually draft 2.0 and I get stuttering streaming movies on occasion. Usually streaming recorded TV from Media Center is fine. The DWA is only rated at 150 Mbs instead of the full 300. I have heard that prior drafts weren't as reliable as 2.0 so that is why I would say to go with 2.0. I am still not sold on wireless N as a good alternative and am debating on running a Ethernet cable and giving up on the whole wireless thing. I havent tried changing channels or moving my WAP to see if I can get better reception.
