I have primarily been a 360 gamer this gen and have been playing a lot of online MP. I use a wired connection on 360 since it doesn't have wifi and it works very well. I got my PS3 a while back last holiday but never really played any online games until just now. I got a fighting game (Naruto UNS3) which I intend to play online. The PS3 does seem to have wireless built in but I'm not sure whether it's a good idea to play on wireless. I have had horrendous experience with lag playing on wifi connection on the Wii (SSBB and DBZ BT3 were extremely laggy).

So now I'm a bit confused. My router is downstairs a fair distance away from the consoles and I had to do some crazy engineering to bring a connection upstairs. I don't want to have to constantly switch the ethernet cable from my 360 to PS3. So before I go and splurge out on ethernet cable splitters and all that jazz to hook up a wired connection to my PS3, I wanted to know if any of that really makes much of a difference? Is it noticably different with an improved connection if you are playing on wired on PS3? And what type of connection have you had success with?
