When the rig and internet hub are in the same room, I used ethernet. When I moved the rigs to other rooms, the wifi (in my situation) got flaky. For those remote locations, powerline internet adapters ($50'ish) worked just fine. The spec sheet mentions 300' runs max so even if the rig location is in the room next door, you have to consider the copper path from the internet hub to the junction box and then to the room next door... YMMV
