Contrary view: I have been using Modular Wi-Fi for past year, I don’t even bother to plug in the hard wire any more. I have gigabit fiber and the Data rate of my Wi-Fi is same or better, everywhere, without thinking of a cable.
To me Running Ethernet in the walls is as useful as coax to all your potential tv locations, like the bathroom and the kitchen? Bunch of wall plates? Are you worried about future upgrades? Why not fiber everywhere?
If I was building a house and dotting all the q’s maybe run large conduit everywhere so you could pull new wires in the future? Remember those whole house vacuum systems?
So, yeah, I think going Wi-Fi only is reasonable.

How so? For security everything transmitted to/from secure place is encrypted. The internet is already a giant open mic. How does using Wi-Fi change that?
