I don't trust wireless connections!

You don't know what those wireless connections will do, they will betray you as soon as you turn your back on them.

Heh, but a wired connection would mean paying for my own internet. I havent done that in 10 years. You are correct in not trusting wireless connections.. I am on your network, stealing your packets.

It was kind of a major revelation for me to rediscover how much faster wired networking is compared to wifi. I got dependent on wifi for a while due to its convenience and my laziness, but with just a very modest amount of time and furniture rearrangement / cabling work my network transfer speeds and internet jumped to be about 30x faster than it was previously. 2MB/s file transfers between networked computer became 60+MB/s file transfers (SSD to SSD transfers probably could go 200+MB/s), internet speeds jumped from ~3-4MB/s max to 100+MB/s (on a gigabit fiberoptic line).

Especially for anyone with fiber optic internet or utilizing a home network/server, a wired connection can make a HUGE difference -- and it's something that can easily be overlooked for those conditioned to the convenience of wifi.

My brother tried setup similar to yours few times - almost killed several members of household :>
