I work from home also but I guess I just don't deal with big enough files. My internet is around 80Mbps-100Mbps which is fine for 99% of what I do (plus it's "free" with my HOA). Only time I wish it was a bit faster is the rare occasion I have to download a 50GB game on my xbox or pc... that takes a bit longer than I would like, but that's an ISP issue not so much wireless. Considering when I was a kid it would take longer than that just to download a jpg far enough to see some nip... can't complain.
Only thing I have hardwired is my little Qnap NAS but that's like 3 feet from my computers so no issues running a cable behind the desk. Even then I rarely need to transfer big enough files to matter much.

If you have that shit in your closet then I'm guessing you most certainly need some cat7 cabling.
