Hi,

Just looking for some advice,

What Is the best way to connect my gen 2.

WiFi or ethernet?

Router is fast enough and I have the option of ethernet if that is better.

It is currently connected through ethernet but I have left the WiFi option in settings to ON, not sure if this is correct.

I also have one Puck connected

Hi @Abdn607

Ethernet is generally more stable but if you have problems the try WiFi. I have good stable WiFi and cannot even tell the difference between Ethernet or WiFi on my setup.

Note - The Ethernet port is limited to 100mbps but this if way more than you need for streaming even in 4K.

It is currently connected through Ethernet but I have left the WiFi option in settings to ON, not sure if this is correct.

No, if you are connected via Ethernet then the WiFi must be turned off in settings. Only have it on if you are connecting by WiFi.

The devices were built for WiFi so if you have good coverage or a mesh system 100% use WiFi ..........
