why use ethernet over wi-fi?

  • Faster, Stable Speeds:

Hardwired (Ethernet) connections deliver consistent speeds without the fluctuations common with Wi-Fi making it an ideal choice for activities such as media streaming/uploading, online gaming and video conferencing.

  • Lower Latency:

Hardwired connections reduce lag, which is especially important for online P2P gaming, VoIP calls and other real-time applications.

  • Greater Security:

To intercept data on a hardwired network, someone would need direct, physical access to an outlet or connected devices. This makes unauthorised access far more difficult than with a wireless network, which can be accessed from outside the building.

  • No Signal Interference:

Wi-Fi is prone to interference from property walls, sub-floors, electronic devices and other nearby networks, which can degrade performance. Ethernet connections aren’t affected by these factors.

  • Less Network Congestion:

Using hardwired connections for stationary devices frees up Wi-Fi bandwidth for portable connected devices, improving overall network performance.

common questions

What option do I have if Ethernet connections cannot be installed?

If Ethernet connections aren’t an option due to structural limitations, cost, or rental restrictions, the most reliable alternative for improving your network’s accessibility and performance is the installation of a Wi-Fi Mesh System.

A Wi-Fi Mesh System is a type of wireless network that uses multiple interconnected devices to provide strong, consistent Wi-Fi coverage throughout your property.

How It Works:

Rather than relying on a single router, a Wi-Fi Mesh System uses a main router plus one or more satellite nodes placed throughout your home. These nodes work together, communicating with each other and the main router to create one unified, seamless network.

As you move throughout your home, your portable devices automatically connect to the nearest and strongest signal, ensuring uninterrupted Wi-Fi without manual switching or dropped connections.

What NBN plan should I consider for home office use?

For home office use, an NBN 100 (Fast) plan should provide reliable speeds, strong upload performance and low latency especially if the following tasks are required:

  • Video conferencing (e.g. Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet)

  • Transferring of large files via cloud storage (e.g. Dropbox, Google Drive)

  • Reliance on VoIP phone systems

  • Working whilst other family members are also using the network
