Speaking for experience, saving an ethernet cable will only provide a benefit in the long run. A wireless network is not foolproof and if you should need something when the network goes down the only other option is to use an ethernet cable. This is why you need to make sure to save the cable for any situation where the wireless is down and you have to be able to access the internet.

Ethernet Cables: Reliable Home Networking?

There are several connection options for home networking. The first and traditional option is to use network cables, such as Ethernet types. The second option is to have a wireless network without the need for any cables. Either way, modern wireless routers support both types of networking methods. However, Ethernet cables offer several advantages over wireless networking. For example, Ethernet cables have much faster speeds of data transmission compared to routers. Additionally, there is always a reliable transmission of data through cables while wireless signals could be effected by physical barriers and interference from other radio waves. Also, Ethernet cables are available in a variety of lengths while wireless routers have a fixed range.
