Orbi™ WiFi 6 AX6000 Mesh WiFi System Connection Question
Hello,
I will be setting up a Orbi™ WiFi 6 AX6000 Mesh WiFi System with the router and two satelletiles with wirless connections. I am planning to use this system to back up a large amount of data (500GB to 1TB) currently residing on my late-2016 Macbook Pro, and an attached Samsung T7 SSD drive, to the cloud.
My question is if there would be any advantage (for example, speed, reliability, etc) to connecting the Macbook Pro to one of the Orbi satellites using an hardwired ethernet connection versus just connectiong the Macbook Pro to the wireless network?
Please post about this over in the Orbi AX forum:

Good Luck.

Hardwired is always better than wireless.
