For Wifi assume good (not ideal) signal and for Ethernet typical 1gbps 15m cable

    Wired will always be faster with equivalent tech. WiFi is a convenience that you pay for with a little more latency, usually small enough that you don’t care.

      The main problem with wifi isn’t the amount of latency. It’s the inconsistency of the latency. Packets just get “stuck” for way too long sometimes, even if the average latency is good.
