As per title. I have ethernet issues at home and if I just turn WiFi on my MacMini, will this take over or will it default to ethernet unless I pull the cable out?

          You can select the preferred connection in System Preferences -> Network.
          Then use the Gear-Icon and select "Set Service Order...".



          Your system will then prioritize the connection at the first position.
