Hi, guys. I was checking the online god's website (aka pcwzrd) and noticed he's got two Raspberry Pi's for sale but they're currently out of stock. I plan to check the page daily as instructed but I was leaning towards the smaller, nicer looking Pi Zero. However, I noticed it is only capable of Wi-Fi and not Ethernet. Does that make any difference in terms of connection speed or lag? I know traditionally it's always better to be directly connected, but I don't know if that makes any difference when playing over a fake dial-up connection. For what it's worth, I plan on playing tons of PSO.

Thanks, guys.

I've been playing over WiFi for around a year now (previously was using ethernet at a different house) and have found it perfectly fine. As long as you are able to get a strong and stable connection to your router then you should be OK. However, ethernet is inevitably the better of the two, and so I suppose it depends on how convenient it would be for you to use it. If your router is close by to your DC, then I'd go for ethernet.

I had a feeling this was the case but I just wanted to be sure. Appreciate the response.

Hardwired ethernet 200%, wifi always the last resort

Device+router can kiss be touching and interference still occurs

you could get a wireless bridge as well and have it close to the router with the pi plugged into the bridge and would pretty much be like ethernet/wired
