Using WiFi vs Ethernet for your networks. Below are my top 5 reasons for using each. Let me know what I forgot!
Using Ethernet over WiFi:
Consistent performance: stable throughput with low latency and jitter (best for gaming/voice/video).
Maximum speed: reliably hit gigabit/multi-gig for big file transfers and backups.
Reliability: immune to RF interference, walls, and neighbor networks.
Security: traffic isn’t broadcast over the air; harder to snoop.
Predictable capacity: dedicated link per device; no shared Wi-Fi airtime.
