I have wireless connection to the main machine I use for computer internet play and it has very seldom had a lag issue or lost on time, or disconnected. It has played tens of thousands of games. I use Ubiquti hardware for wifi (https://www.ubnt.com/).

Re: Wired connection is preferred for cloud matches
Wired connection is imaginable better for two computer matches conducted from fritz cloud service. The reason is that wifi connection occasionally drops midgame that results in disconnection, game has to be restarted. This shouldn't happend with wired connection.jdart wrote:I have wireless connection to the main machine I use for computer internet play and it has very seldom had a lag issue or lost on time, or disconnected.

Nothing wrong using wifi on single machine matches.

Re: Wired connection is preferred for cloud matches
I have a wired Ethernet connection in every room in my house because WiFi is IMHO not very reliable. Maybe it is because I live in a very crowded area, when I look at my mobile telephone I usually see around 30 WiFi signals in the neighborhood and I can imagine that this produces a lot of noise and disturbance.
Atm. I only use WiFi for laptops and mobile telephones, in the past I used Ubiquiti (EdgeRouter POE with AP-AC-Pro), some time ago I switched to Mikrotik (CCR1009 with wAP ac) which performs essentially the same and doesn't need Java to configure the network like Ubiquiti does.
