Certainly the application should always determine the solution. In the case 
of Internet Access, you certainly want the wireless or cable to provide at 
least the bandwidth of the connection to the ISP. 
Today, residential cable is running roughly 4Mbps with some operators 
providing 10Mbps. DSL speeds range from about 56K upwards. (Note the DSL 
norm is about 768K).
