So I have the choice of either using wireless or a set of powerline adapters for my gaming rig. I want something good, but also cost effecting. I would be in the same room as the router is located. Any help from experience would be greatly appreciated. I do have a good Roadrunner connection.

So:

A. Should i do powerline adapters or wireless

B. What is my best bet for either of those solutions, at a cost effective price

I would need a new router AND wireless adapter.

Thank you for all suggestions!!
 
I have 0 experience with powerline adapters. Wireless will introduce a touch of lag. possibly an extra 5-25ms of ping.

Why does it have to be wireless? Can you not hook directly into the Roadrunner modem?
