Quoted for truth!
it seems like everybody tried to ignore this post...

So what is the truth on that? 802.11n is capable of something like 50-60mbps, depending on your router. It also has bigger latency than wired connection.
Here are some results from speedtest while downloading some videos, dl seems to be capped at 100mbps with minimal impact on ping. Note that I am using the wireless-n tablet less than 2 meters from my router, no wall between.

21ms more latency and 150mbps less dl speed.

yeah uh...... tablets are not good benchmarks, they are not fast enough to cap out the wireless capabilities of your home network much like older computers can't even cap out a 100Mb connection sometimes and a lot still can't cap out 1000Mb connections with lowest possible pin, you need a real computer to do that, not tablets.

I used the tablet because it gives the best results on speedtest.net.

I usually get much better results on a powerful enough laptop with wireless, my tablet and phone usually lags behind by a lot, I'm talking like 1-2MB/s bad on new Tegra 3 or S4 devices vs like 4.5MB/s on full fledged laptops when using the internet, the gap widens as we start to do file transfers over wireless N. Tablets are fine for browsing, but I think they'll keep sucking due to power restrictions on that front.
