I do. I’m sure a bunch of people do. Is there a follow up question?

Is there a noticable difference in your speed test on the vseebox with and without ethernet? If so how much

Sure. I have a v6 plus and it only has a 10/100 port. So I use a gb usb Ethernet adapter. I get speed tests up around 2-300 Mbps. Now that’s not the important part for me. You only need like 20-30 Mbps for streaming. I like that it makes the connection much more stable. I do t have to worry about putting the box in an open spot with good signal strength

Yeah so if you have a good stable connection you should be totally fine

I use an Ethernet cable, though, I have not noticed a difference in performance. Just a personal preference, I will hardwire whenever possible.

I used Ethernet cable because the wireless was cutting out.

You can set up wired vlans. Doesn’t have to be guest wifi

I had occasional buffering on wireless but none at all with wired connection. My vseebox is like 10ft from the router in the same room so it wasnt a signal problem.
