What internet to use?

Frederikrp · Jun 22, 2014

Hi, I'm going to buy a pc, and i don't know what kind of internet to use? Ethernet or Wi-Fi.
Help is welcome

just check what kind of service you have in your region
and check the internet speed versus the price , ethernet or wifi does not matter

Ethernet is basically always better. Less latency, less subject to interference, and often higher speeds and reliability

okay, but if the router is too far away, can i get a Ethernet adapter and still have less latency, interference and higher speed?

The maximum allowed Category 5 or Category 6 cable length is 100 meters.

There are also things called "power line adapters" like the next,

these are plugged into a powersocket,one nearby the router and the other in the room where you have the pc or an accespoint.
