WiFi wireless vs cellular data 4g lte or 5g

[ng4ever]

Will WiFi wireless always be superior in this aspect? As long as you’re not really far away from the main routers or ap?

Mostly talking about a stable connection and being able to do personal video streaming (Plex or Emby not YouTube or Netflix) without any buffering at all.


It seems like to me Plex or Emby always buffers, even if only a little, over 4g lte or 5g

With WiFI, you have the considerations of course with range to the AP perhaps, but also the upstream broadband connection.

That being said, on travel, I have had better luck with 4G/5G having better service than the Hotel's WiFi...

The answer to the question is either "it depends" or "42".
