1. How come today, for home use, WiFi seems to exceed the price/performance of hard-wired? Is the Ethernet standard lagging, or lack of interest/demand, or some more physical barrier?
2. Related, for somebody who wants reliability, is Ethernet/wired still a sane choice, or does that just make them an old geezer?
In urban setting with overlapping wifi cards all blasting full strength at their neighbours, is real-life wifi performance actually near as good as wired performance?
