I find wireless at my house painful with one client and the router 5m
away with no walls in between.  File transfers at less than 100Mbps is
just horrible, and I would expect anyone setting up a new network to use
gigabit (the switches have become real cheap).

If you want a reliable network with anything near acceptable speed, then
you want a properly wired network.
