I've had a wireless network for at least 4 years. File-sharing has never been all that reliable (but I think that's b/c we upgraded computers and/or OS to XP in the meantime). It was really cool when it did work - grabbing files from a computer 3 stories and 100 feet away.

Internet access has been mostly fine. I have to click "repair" every so often when the signal is lost (which I mostly attribute to Windows XP).

Since our "hub" access is 3 stories from my office, and it's a 1913 house, wireless was really the ONLY option - and I'm glad I did it. I'd do it again, in a heartbeat.
