You are right of course. Not too many N equipped systems around yet though,
especially among hams.
But one could never use up that much bandwidth in a ham environment, in my
opinion.
As to the other applications failing, I'd bet on misconfigurations or other
problems. Even 45 mb is an awful lot of bandwidth to use up, and being
ethernet, it does NOT serve just one computer at a time, serially. It is a
fully parallel protocol. But misconfiguration even of the protocol can mess
it up.

802.11N wireless routers handle up to 260 Mbits/sec .I have the linksys
WRT150N .It works pretty well on my network using the Omni VII and the
oneplug..Of course the wireless on your notebook will have to support
802.11N.

Modern wireless routers handle 45 Mbits/sec. I can't imagine using that up
in this manner.
