There are two issues to contend with, latency and bandwidth. You’d be surprised how little dedicated bandwidth you need. It’s the latency that needs to be as low as possible. You should test your ISP’s latency against Google and OpenDNS. I use OpenDNS for the security and lowest latency. I was able to cut latency by 20msec by switching from Google to OpenDNS. Latency is the amount of time it takes to resolve an address before you even start downloading data.

As for your wireless connection, you should make sure you are putting them on the 5ghz segment since it’s faster, provided they are close enough to the router. You could also get an AP between the router or a wireless extender that plugs into your power outlets.
