Hello, I was looking into getting a laptop for school use (asus n550jv...its being used for CAD and light gaming) but i was wandering if i wanted to use Steam in Home (Game streaming software) would i be limited by the 300 Mbit router speed or my 2 Mbit Internet Speed (yes i know its slow). I am assuming that it would be router limited not internet limited. is this assumption correct? the 2 devices would be connected to the same router. Desktop specs in signature
 
Solution
You would be limited by the router. Don't expect to get anywhere near the 300 wireless speeds they talk about. You might get about 100m and it will be much worse if you have interference from neighbors.
