There is nothing more reliable than wired Ethernet, so it's better to use it. Wi-Fi with the steel case (on V3) results in poor performance. But who are we to stop you... :)

The following describes how to setup a Wi-Fi connection on the default pikvm builds based on Arch Linux.
The process might vary for other Linux distros. We recommend to do this while having a display and keyboard
connected directly to the Raspberry Pi as you will loose network connectivity once you connect to a Wi-Fi.

Alternatively you can connect to the PiKVM via SSH. The built-in Web Terminal (available through the browser) should also work.
