It provides the most stable connection and allowing maximum bandwidth; plus will not be subject to interference. However if you wish to have mobility (like a laptop) or the location of your router is in another room from your PC-setup wireless is fine as long as you can maintain a decent signal.
A lot of times people who cry about their wireless router dropping all the time is because it is suffering from interference like a 2.4GHz wireless router is in the same room or vicinity of a 2.4GHz cordless phone .. get DTECH cordless phones.. they wont' interfere with wireless routers.

Yes they can.. it is why I stay away from D-Link especially; Optimum Online has a habit of dropping on them or at least they "used to"
Thats about what I was figuring from my limited knowledge as far as hardwired go.
Mobility isnt an issue, my current room/dwelling where all but 1 thing accessing the router would be are all 25 feet or less from the router. so hardwiring the consoles and pc would be cake. It'll just be a matter of hoping the N and possibly a new wireless card would solve the issue with the low signal strength from the lone pc on the other end of the house.
since one of the brands on newegg at least that ive seen alot of(Rosewill) don't seem to have any Cat5e Cables, are their any other cable brands anyone would recommend? Belkin perhaps? Figure when i get a new router I should get all my cabling all at once as well.
Edit: Hmm, If i'm willing and able to commit the extra $ should I bother to go after a Wireless N Gigabyte router?
