Wired has much more stable latency though. Matters for online games.
The highest ping is like 3 ms, that's not going to make a difference when my ping is 120ms. Let me remind you the pings over the wire can spike a millisecond too
Not while it's within my house it can't. Packets can get lost just going to the router over wifi.
They can, but they don't. I pinged for an hour and didn't lose any
That does depend heavily on the RF environment you're in. If your house is more remote and not surrounded by other wifi networks it will be pretty stable, plenty good enough for online gaming.
