You've got to take into account that those bandwidth figures exist on paper only - nobody is getting 5Gbps out of their wifi.

In practice it is all about degraded performance. If you're sitting in another room than the AP, close to your neighbour, do you want to be left with 50Mbps remaining out of the original 5000Mbps, or 2Mbps remaining out of the original 200Mpbs?
