I don't have an actual hard wired router in the location where my setup is but would a streamer benefit from being connected to a wireless access point via an ethernet cable that is connected to a mesh setup over connecting directly to the streamer's wifi? I'm wondering this for an Apple TV as well.
Ethernet
I’m considering using a 25 foot ethernet cable run from my router to my Node N130 instead of using wi-fi. Will there be an improvement by bypassing the wifi receiver inside the Node? Any recommendations/input would be much appreciated..

Thank you everyone for the advice!! I have the Eero 6 mesh in my house. So are you saying that a short ethernet cable from an Eero to my Node will be better than running a 25' shielded CAT8 cable directly from my router? The Eero is much slower (about 200 Mbps) compared to my ethernet connection (about 600 Mbps). |
@asahitoro This is my similar question but from what I am reading turning off your streamer's wifi and removing that process has sonic benefits. |
@fastfreight This is what I ordered before I read your suggestion. I hope it will be as good.

@hjdca So, Eero to short fiber optic ethernet could be better than a 25' ethernet directly from the router? Interesting possibility... |
