Whether or not to buy a wired or wireless router depends on the consumers use of either. If the consumer plans on using a computer or laptop and does not want to have a cord attached at all times, then a wireless router is most likely the best choice. For a desktop PC that is stationary, and no need for moving around, a wired router will be the best choice.
