This is due to the accessibility of wireless networks, that is anyone who is in range of the wireless signal and try to access the network. Obviously the solution is to use encryption but some individuals can overcome this security. Although it is important to note that if a outsider can get physical access to a wired network than they can access it just as easily, although there are solutions to both of these by using a local DNS server to manage your network.
It would be more important, since a wired network needs physical access to a location to plug in, but a wireless network has a range of roughly 300 feet, meaning someone could sit in a parking lot and get on your network.
Wireless broadband is less secure than wired internet because anyone who is close enough can access the system and try to hack in. A wired system is more secure because there is typically only one user on site. Poor security passwords and allowing people onto the premises will make it just as insecure.
Both of them have problem. One of the most secure connections is fiber optics. Tapping is very challenging for such networks.
In general yes, because you cant have as much security as you can with wireless, but if you are running multiple computers from a server, then they can both be equally secure.
In some way it's true. But if you are using WPA2-PSK you will be fine because it's very hard to hack.
