Because 90% of non-tech people don't like wires. Nobody runs ethernet cables to all their devices. They don't want to have to worry about an Ethernet switch in the basement or a closet. Having a Wi-Fi router/cable modem in the bedroom is the most they want to worry about. With wireless networking they can have their devices wherever they want, without extra wires.
