Quality of connection for online gaming would go something like this: Direct connect to modem > direct connect to router > Wifi connect to router.
How bad the degradation between the three levels depends on a ton of things, in my house, I'd say the biggest difference is between the first two, with negligible differences between the latter two.
If I'm in for a night of Gears 2, I direct connect to modem everytime.
