Any improvement of one over the other would only be visible with a faster network in front of the router. I haven't really noticed any improvement transfering between computers, but most of my work is done over the network.
The internet infrastructure in the Middle East is primative and slow, so that would be a bottleneck and limit any experience over, say, a connection in New York. But still, even between machines, I haven't had any great improvements. This leaves me wondering if there is another bottleneck I'm not aware of.
