Wired vs Wireless Networking
Ethernet and wireless networks each have advantages and disadvantages; depending on your needs, one may serve you better than the other. Wired networks provide users with plenty of security and the ability to move lots of data very quickly. Wired networks are typically faster than wireless networks, and they can be very affordable. However, the cost of Ethernet cable can add up — the more computers on your network and the farther apart they are, the more expensive your network will be. In addition, unless you’re building a new office and installing Ethernet cable in the walls, you’ll be able to see the cables running from place to place around your offfice, and wires can greatly limit your mobility. A laptop owner, for example, won’t be able to move around easily if his computer is tethered to the wall.
