What are the benefits of a wired vs. wireless network?

The main differences between wired and wireless networks are their physical connection methods and their respective characteristics:

Wired Network:

– Connection: Uses physical cables (like Ethernet cables) to connect devices.

– Speed: Generally offers higher speeds and more stable connections due to the direct link.

– Interference: Less susceptible to interference from other electronic devices.

– Security: Typically more secure since physical access to the cables is required to intercept data.

– Setup: Requires more setup and maintenance, as cables need to be run and managed.

 

Wireless Network:

– Connection: Uses radio waves to connect devices without physical cables.

– Speed: Can be slower and less consistent than wired networks, depending on the technology (e.g., Wi-Fi 4, 5, or 6) and the distance from the router.

– Interference: More susceptible to interference from other wireless devices and physical obstacles (like walls).

– Security: Can be more vulnerable to unauthorized access if not properly secured with strong encryption and passwords.

– Setup: Easier to set up and more flexible, as devices can connect from anywhere within the signal range.

Each type has its own advantages and is chosen based on specific needs, such as speed requirements, mobility, and ease of setup.
