there's a myth out there, saying that

if ur sharing an internet connection n some ppl r using LAN cable n others r using wireless LAN, that the ppl using the cable get more bandwidth than the others

is that really true?? i mean, isn't the bandwidth to all comps/laptops the same regardless whether u r using a LAN cable or wireless LAN??

does it really make a difference?
