A direct line connected from your router to the device—is a best-case scenario for many desktop computers, printers, game consoles, Smart TVs and other devices. And though it might not be feasible to wire every device, consider plugging it in if it’s practical. Here are five benefits you’ll notice:
- Better overall internet speeds (Wi-Fi speeds often fluctuate)
- Better overall local network speeds (Faster file transfer and printing with an ethernet cable)
- A more reliable connection (Wi-Fi can have interference with other wireless devices)
- Fewer security concerns (Wi-Fi opens up your systems to additional risks)
- Easier to diagnose in large environments
