Wired Internet
Wired internet connects your device to the internet through physical cables, usually Ethernet. It provides a stable, high-speed connection, optimal for data-heavy tasks or real-time applications. The connection is less likely to be affected by interference, ensuring consistent speed and lower latency. However, mobility is limited—you must be physically connected to the network.
Key points:
- High speed and stable connection
- Lower latency
- Not portable—requires physical connection
- Less prone to interference
Wireless Internet
Wireless internet, often referred to as Wi-Fi, allows devices to connect to the internet without cables. It provides mobility—you can connect from anywhere within the network's range. However, the connection speed can be affected by distance from the router, physical obstructions, and interference from other devices.
Key points:
- Allows mobility and flexibility
- Connection may vary due to distance, obstructions, or interference
- Speeds generally lower than wired connections
- More susceptible to security risks
Remember: For high-speed tasks like gaming or streaming, a wired connection may be preferred. For mobility and convenience, wireless is the way to go. Always ensure your device’s security settings are up-to-date, especially when using wireless internet. For connection issues, please contact our help desk.
