yeah the thing to remember is that while your router might not be super fast, is it the slowest link in the chain?

as others have already mentioned, you have to make sure your connection speed is fast enough. you have to be sure the ea servers aren't being teh suck as usual. make sure you aren't playing on a team of calgarian when you live 1500 miles away! (oops!!!)

certainly, having wired internet helps when your own network is being slow, but it often is not the slowest piece of the pie. if at all possible, go ahead and hook it up to ethernet and see if you notice a difference. if so, then you can start worrying about how to run cat5 through your floorboards and stuff.
