Wi-Fi is obviously more convenient than wired Ethernet cables. But Ethernet still offers advantages — faster speeds, lower latency, and no wireless interference problems.
You probably won’t be connecting an Ethernet cable to your smartphone any time soon. But this matters when dealing with desktop PCs, laptops at desks, game consoles, TV-streaming boxes, and other devices

Security is another concern. Even if you’re using modern WPA2-PSK to secure your Wi-Fi, people could theoretically try to connect to your Wi-Fi network. If you’re using a wired Ethernet network, people can only connect if they can physically plug a device into your router. Of course, you’ll probably be using both wired and wireless connections, so this usually only matters if you’re setting up some sort of secure business network. Some routers do allow you to isolate your wireless network from your wired one, although that can cause problems when devices want to communicate with each other.
