Ya know how Vista has that terrible lag spike problem when you're running the internet wireless? 

Anyone know if Windows 7 fixed that issue?

so far so good! Doing some unreal tournament over my wireless N network and its solid as a rock

Did or does?

Does. -_-

I don't understand why they do this.  This just ruins online gaming.  Why would they not give you the option to turn it off?

I still haven't noticed any lag spikes while gaming online. This is over a trendnet USB wireless N adapter. I've been quite pleased so far with Win 7.

There have been updates to many wireless drivers that also seem to help this issue in Vista.
