I am referring to nominal performance, not really special conditions or
setup variables. I have the slower
802.11b/g<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11#802.11g> right
now and on a laptop i can nearly play full HD with a pause every 3 seconds
or so (so close).  Anyone able to do it with
802.11<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11#802.11g>n?
 And if so, sometimes certain hardware cannot peg the wireless I/O and
still deliver the rest of the package, which is more around the question
specific to the Zotac.

If not, then I can't wait for
802.11<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11#802.11g>ad
which should be able to do it according to specs.
