There is a gigantic difference between an MMO and a competitive FPS when it comes to necessary response time. People pay hundreds of dollars to remove milliseconds from their monitors response time(how long it takes to actually display the image it was given) so they can do better in FPS games. The precision and timing can get absolutely insane, nothing like waiting for cooldowns in an MMO.
@.:A-MAN:. That high though??? Ive never used anything higher than a 45Mb/s and DCUO worked just fine.
@SLEDGE Im to lazy to find one right now but I had one in the past and I didnt really care about any of that, but now that Im in an apartment now that might be something to look at... my modem can do 5.0 (? I think thats the number?) and that might be better. idk how to set that up though.
Wifi is far less reliable, interference can be caused by all sorts of crap, especially if you are on 2.4. Get a WiFi band analyzer app, 2.4 frequencies are crammed to hell.
I would absolutely plug in ethernet if there was a jack even though the WiFi is good. Faster is faster.
@.:A-MAN:. Well you have to use wires. Looser. It's the 2000s. Cant 2...or 4 dudes make out with each other without being gay?
I mean, chicks dig that kind of thing anyways.
Yeah I know where I'm doing all my Steam downloads from now on :P
The AP's scattered all over campus each look like some sort of Portal robot, giant white 4-channel monstrosities hanging from the ceiling. And again, two in just that one room. That's eight antennas for the 20-30 of us to share.

But speed, that's why.

My college is like ~53 Mb/s over WiFi.
