Wifi Time Machine - don’t.

Well, you can, but file it under the “not a good idea” category.

However, having said that, I have a setup at my office that works well. A Mac Mini running Sierra and Apple’s Server app, configured for Time Machine backups.

If you go that route, I do not recommend going any higher than Sierra on the host/server machine.
