It's been too long since I started a poll, and I'm curious how fast 802.11ac uptake has been. So, a poll: Which type of networking do you use at home with some regularity? We'll leave out cellular signals and such as a separate category.
I use Ethernet and 802.11g personally. I'd thought at one point I might upgrade to N, and even had an N wireless card, but it turns out the G router I have is pretty reliable and fast enough, so I've yet to upgrade.

I jumped to 802.11ac bandwagon recently which I wanted for DLNA streaming though 802.11n would suffice.
-
My router does AC' but I have no comaptible device, yes, it was provided by my ISP. It's actually a decent dual band, so I have everything on 5 GHz N.

802.11AC. If nothing else my Asus router was big upgrade from the N router I had for years on end in features and simultaneous dual band is nice too.
-
802.11ac here too. TrueCrypt containers are stored on two NASes and mounted as local drives on my laptop. 802.11ac speeds are needed so that using them would feel snappy and immediate.
That setup allows me to have all that I need on 256GB SSD and all that I might need when at home on two automatically mounted drives. -
802.11n and 802.11bgn. Most of my devices support up to N only, some even can't handle N, others can't handle 5Ghz, its sad..

Ethernet and "N".
While the prospect of taking the AC route is intriguing, I'll wait a bit longer...
What type of networking and wireless do you use at home?
