I'm glad the Powerline option was discussed, as it is far easier to set up than a wireless network. More secure, too.
And it works... Very well infact

I get a nice stable 15ms to some of the UK gaming servers now.

Where as before when i was using wi-fi to connect I was getting a lot of jitter and packetloss despite my wlan card reporting an excellent signal.

Interestingly i always seem to get 5 -6 ms when i ping the router so it does add some latency.
