Setting up the Axis M1011 camera: wifi or wired?

Our axis camera JUST came in the mail yesterday, so I'm setting it up. However I'm having to choose between "Robot Radio" (wifi if I understand correctly) or "8-slot CompactRIO ethernet".

Which do yall use or is better?
I feel like ethernet would give less lag but if the ethernet port in the cRIO is already used up by the router, do I HAVE to use Robot Radio? Or can I plug it in wired to the router ports?
Also, what if we plan on using a 4slot cRIO instead of 8slot? Again, does that limit us to one plan or the other?
EDIT: oh, and is it possible to go back and reset it to the other option later?
