GoKawiilMany smart TVs ship with Ethernet ports capped at 100Mbps, slower than their Wi-Fi
Many smart TVs and streaming devices include Ethernet jacks limited to 100Mbps even though gigabit Ethernet has existed for decades, while the same TVs often support Wi-Fi 5 or Wi-Fi 6, which can exceed gigabit speeds under good conditions. Despite the raw speed gap, Ethernet still offers more stable, interference-free connections over distances up to 100 meters using Cat 6 cable.
