    Wireless / Ethernet connection to internet permanently ON?


    Hi

    As the title reads. Is it safe to have a permanent connection to the internet, even leaving a wired connection plugged in whilst rebooting and signing into the Windows profile?


    Thanks

    :)

    Windows 10 Pro Version 1511,10586 won't install

    Is the computer connected to the internet using a wireless or ethernet connection?

    Windows 10 No "WiFi" Option

    I am connected to the internet via an Ethernet connection. I need to access my WiFi network, but no WiFi option shows up in Network & Internet list on the left hand side of the page and the only available network showing is to my **** Router which is connected
    by Ethernet. The wireless router is working and several other devices are connected, but I cannot see the wireless network on my computer and it has a wireless card. When we set up the router at first it would only connect via wireless and not by Ethernet.
    I wanted the Ethernet connection for the desktop computer for the speed, so we disabled the wireless during the set up of the router. The wireless now does not even show up to be enabled. Any ideas.

    Why do you think it wouldn't be safe?
