Playing SSF4 on the new Xbox360s

FutureGuy

Just a quick question. I have heard in the past that wireless connections aren't good enough for online SSF4. Since then, we have had a new wireless connecter released as well as the new slim Xbox.

Is anyone playing the game online using wireless on the new Xbox 250G slim version? If so, are there any problems with the connection?

From a technical perspective, wireless is never suitable for gaming and will always propose some sort of latency, there are wireless routers where you can restricts different bands for different accessors.

Never had much problem with this on PS3 or PC tbh.

Apple Airport Extreme w/PS3 (old), approx 10-15m, going through 2-3 walls.

Unless your home wireless set up is a joke your internet connection is the real key. and seeing as how eircom have been universally terrible for the last year...

a wireless ap will add another layer of possible problems i suppose, my xbox adapter has always been grand though. much better than my pc's wireless adapter.

I use wifi on the old xbox 360 and have had no problems with it, i would imagine that the wifi on the new xbox would be the same or better.

Performance wise if you have a strong single you won't notice the difference between wired and wireless. Wired connections tend to be more consistent though, no random drops or interference that wireless is occasionally prone too.

I use wired now and other than the odd random drop they seem to perform with no perceptible difference.

That said my router is about 1 meter away from my consoles so no brick walls = best case scenario.

It may work fine but why add another variable or possibility to losing connection speed or packets, etc.
