Best Answer

Optimizing the performance of a wireless internet network requires the proper hardware. A router could be combined with an Ethernet switch to get the best possible speeds of data transfers and overall performance. Ethernet Switches offer more Ethernet ports than routers. For example, the number of Ethernet ports in Switches range between five and twelve. Ethernet switches or hubs also help to prioritize the data, which improves download and upload speeds when using a wireless internet network.

How data can be transferred using wired and wireless methods?

This is assuming that there is no outside access to the Ethernet network such as a Internet connection. If there were then firewalls would be needed to prevent a outside intrusion of the network. In addition to physical access security, a wireless network requires authentication and encryption to prevent unauthorized devices from connecting to the wireless network or capturing and decoding the data that is being transferred via a wireless network connection. If the wireless network has outside WAN access then you would also need firewalls as with the Ethernet network.
