Right, Indy --

That's what I am suspecting.

I use wireless in the exam rooms for precisely the reason many on this board have posted -- I like to walk around in the exam room, sit next to the patient, or across from the patient, stand up, sit down -- medicine is theater, after all, and the doctor is the director of the play. So it is helpful that wireless (in practice, if not in theory) is just as fast as wired in that setting.

The slowdowns I experience are random and unpredictable -- they are due to events beyond my office walls. They are frustrating when they occur, but there is nothing I can do about them. Fortunately, in my area at least, they are relatively rare.
