Hi,
I have cable gateway SBG6580. My first android box has no problems being hard wired to it. 2nd android box at other end of house has poor wifi. Smartphone has no issue. I read the boxs' wifi is basically useless for streaming, poor internal components. So I want to use the Ethernet port. So whats preferred way to get an ethernet plug in bedroom, w/out running cat 5 cable under house?
Powerline adapters, wifi extender or repeater that has eth port on it, etc?
According to netgear app on phone. Wifi has 100% signal @ 70 Mbps next to gateway, but 60% @ 30 Mbps. Id be happy with 30! But speedtest app on tv box gets around 2! Ergo the reason I believe ethernet will be better; poor wifi chipset. Appreciate suggestions!
