Connect computer to ethernet port on EX6200?

My EX6200 is connecting to my home network and is outputting wifi signal just fine.  My question is:  Can I connect a computer to one of the ethernet ports on the device and get a quasi-hardwire connection?  Is there any advantage to doing this as opposed to just using one of the extender's wifi signals?
