Based on the fact we using the best Orbi 970 why would you hard wire the system /
Im trying to figure out why should I hard wire the orbi 970 based on the fact it suppose to have the best wifi range and coverage wouldn't it defeat the purpose to hard wire them? If you hard wire your system let me know why?

Wire, if cables and any switches are in play, will always out perform wireless.
Also building materials will cause problems and can inhibit wifi signal travel.
If users have the wire infrastructure in place, why not use it.
More range on RBS if wire connected vs wireless.

I hear what you saying but if your going to use wires wouldn't it have been best you use any other mesh product and just add wired backhaul, why would you buy a 2500 system ? would a 1000 wifi 7 works the same wired ?
Any thing is possible.
