The article mentions how Wi-Fi polling hinders performance. I had this problem but didn’t want to run a wire. Various software solutions worked only sporadically. So for quite awhile my solution was a WiFi range extender. It had an Ethernet port. So I disabled the range extender features and plugged my computer into the extender, which then connected wirelessly to the router. This worked quite well and was inexpensive - maybe the wifi extender was $35. It was of course astoundingly and infuriatingly janky to do this - connect a wire to a completely superfluous radio just to dodge an idiotic software problem. But it worked, so I should just regard it as a clever hack. Eventually though I got a MoCA adapter and ran a cheap Cat 6 cable to it, which has even higher speeds and is less janky, though I do have to snake the wire around the room. But after tacking it to the baseboard it’s barely visible. I own my house so I could run Ethernet through the walls but this MoCA gets me 95% of the way there so I doubt I’ll ever bother.
