Default Need opinions on Wireless vs Wired Connection

So I rearranged my room and don't feel like running an ethernet cable through the middle of my room. I wanted to know if it will make it a difference if I use wirless vs wired. The xbox is about 10 feet from the router.

Yes you will always get faster speeds using Ethernet cable. Really just run it around the edge under your carpet.

You wont notice a difference though probably unless you just have a terrible wireless router.

People always say wireless isn't as good but for me there has been no differnce so I just run wireless on my 360 and PS3 now. No lag and still get full download speed.

Not a noticeable difference.

Well I have about 20mbps down and 2+ up and a linksys WRT54GS router. So I don't think it'll be a big difference or any noticeable lag. I was just wondering if it made it a big difference.

There used to be a noticeable difference (years ago) but with faster connection speeds and better routers nowadays, there really isn't a noticeable difference.

I use wireless through like 10 walls and I still get host in games. But wired will always be faster. I assume this is for Xbox (on iPhone).

Yup this is for Xbox. I'm only 10 feet from the router so I don't really think there would be a difference. I was playing a little before and was sucking, probably cause I'm tired, not because of connection cause I had 4 bars every game.
