Hard-wire Ethernet is always preferable over WiFi, not for speed but for stability - WiFi has a bad habit of dropping packets (considering you are basically beaming sound on radio waves across several walls it's honestly impressive it manages as well as it does).

The line is only as good as its stability - WiFi may be fine when you first test it, but can you guarantee that will be the case when you are doing your show? A connection actively shared between 4 people is not 1/4 as good as one only you are using, it will be significantly less reliable. If you can't manage a wired connection, consider what time your show should be scheduled, or ask the people you share the internet with if they could curtail their usage for the period of your show.

A connection actively shared between 4 people can and will perform far worse than you think - you might think it'd be running at 1/4 of its normal performance, but it can actually be far less reliable. If you can't manage a wired connection, consider what time your show should be scheduled, or ask the people you share the internet with if they could curtail their usage for the period of your show.
