1. Speed – The speed on a wireless network deteriorates as the distance and number of obstacles (walls, appliances, and
so on) between your computer and the router increase. Wired networks can be between 3 and 10 times faster than the
quickest wireless routers on the market today.
2. Interference – A wired network is not susceptible to interference that wireless networks are. Wireless signals can be
hampered by garage door openers, microwave ovens, cordless phones, and even neighbors wireless networks.
3. Security – Data broadcast over wireless networks have the potential to be captured by anyone within range of the router
if it isn’t secured.
4. Video and Audio – Sharing music and video files across the house is a growing trend. These technologies require an
uninterrupted stream of data to work properly. The speed and interference issues of wireless data make distribution
over a wired network the superior choice.
5. Future Technologies – Today wired networks have the ability to carry data, security, communications, telephone, audio,
and high definition video signals. While Tomorrow’s technologies are still being developed, a wired network home can
give you the peace of mind that you will be ready for what is to come.
