Apparently this isn’t allowed in !Android and should go here instead.

Unfortunately that ethernet adapter can be slower than Wi-Fi because the USB is only wired as USB 2, it’ll be limited to 100mbps or less. Trying to stream local media showed that real quick so I had to switch back to WiFi
Huh, interesting. I had no idea. Well I don’t need it to be anywhere faster than 100M. USB2 can definitely do that. Closer to 200M. With that said, the latency is more important if you’re gonna do anything like Steam Link.
Pc streaming with sundhine/moonlight is something I do pretty regularly and I went back to Wi-Fi on both of mine because everything is better including latency. At least the new one has ethernet built in but I’m not buying another TV device from Google.
