I'd be concerned about file sharing over a wireless network, because of 
the potential of corruption when airplanes fly overhead, and because 
anyone within a few hundred feet will be able to penetrate wireless 
networks even when allegedly 'secured.'  At the least, do you want some 
kid in the parking lot using the office SMTP server to send spam, 
leading to the ISP shutting down the connection?

Physical connections will always offer higher speeds and better security.
