You'll want a fairly fast connection - most home broadband should do, but go to [https://speedtest.net Speedtest.net] to check your speed - you'll want at least a couple mbps on the upload line. If you're having issues, 4G may work better than home broadband, but that causes reliability issues, so broadband is preferable unless yours is hopelessly slow.

Hard-wire Ethernet is always preferable over WiFi, not for speed but for stability. 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 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.

Hard-wire Ethernet is always preferable over WiFi, not for speed but for stability. 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? Sharing a WiFi connection between multiple people will perform much worse than you might expect, so if possible get a wired connection. If that's not an option, consider timing your show when as few people as possible will be using WiFi, or ask the people you share the internet with if they could curtail their usage for the period of your show.

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.
