I'm going to wade into the debate. It all depends on what you're trying to achieve. If you just want to share an internet connection, then EoP and WiFi are OK because the bottleneck is your connection to the outside world - i.e. both EoP and WiFi will be fast enough to keep up with your DSL (until FTTH reaches your neighbourhood and the 2nd Pacific fibre is laid). If you want to stream media and stuff from your media server to several viewing devices around the house, and different people are simultaneously watching different content, then EoP and WiFi may reveal their limits.
