And buried right down the article is this

 

Tested for an earlier version of this guide, a wired Ethernet connection was more than seven times faster than the highest throughput of any wireless network. No matter what misleading hype you may see on the box, Wi-Fi cannot outrun Gigabit Ethernet, period.

 

It really should be the lead - wired will always be better than wireless, same goes for backhaul to APs.
