Martin Herløv Andersen Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 I know I already have a post about this issue but I can't edit the other post so I am creating a new one. I found out that my TV works on the 100mb B'side. On the A side there is no light on the port. I have tried different cables but can't get it to work. My AppleTV 4K works need to test my Marantz Processor. The TV works on my old https://www.amazon.com/NETGEAR-5-Port-Ethernet-Unmanaged-FS105NA/dp/B00002EQCW As I was googling my NETGEAR switch I just found out it was only a 100mb switch Then the next logic step was to found out if the TV supported Gigabit network. Quote Is there any way of installing an usb gigabit network adapter on a webos smart TV? The builtin wired adapter is only 100mbps (on a 2000$+ TV, shame on you LG!!!) while the wifi (N) is very poor, with the router at 1m from TV it only gets half the bandwidth of the wired network. Anyway the wired network maxes out near 100mbps but I need more bandwidth as I have 4k video content with bitrates grater than 100mbps which I cannot stream without stuttering to TV through XPLAY/PLEX. Original Content From: https://www.lgwebos.com/topic/3395-gigabit-ethernet-on-smart-tv/ So the question can be boiled down to this: Can a device that only support 100mb be connect to a gigabit connection?

Martin Herløv Andersen Posted May 23, 2020 Author Share Posted May 23, 2020 1 hour ago, ambre said: I have same problems witH my LG OLED 65 inch 2018 Tv. Discussed in detail with Uptone. But found no solutions. Added an anditional switch A- Port and it works. Strange. Regards,Andreas I think that big company's like Netgear has such a large userbase that the catch this kind of errors. Right know a user on the AVSforum are testing his B7 and C9 with a Gigabit switch. Waiting for the result. I using WIFI for now, have a pretty good connection. But I like all streaming to be with cables Link to comment
