Why Hardwired Connections Beat Wi-Fi for Smart TVs Every Time

Today’s smart TV’s come with a host of features designed to provide an unmatched entertainment experience. The catch, however, is that for a smooth streaming of high-quality video content, smart TVs require a stable and robust internet connection. This is where not every type of Internet connection reveals the same quality, and for a consistent and high-quality video streaming Mr. Tronic recommends using hardwired Ethernet connections over Wi-Fi.

Understanding Your Smart TV’s Needs

Your smart TV is only as smart as the internet connection that powers it. Whether you're streaming the latest Netflix series, mirroring your laptop screen, or playing online games, Wi-Fi can sometimes falter under the pressure. The more devices connected to Wi-Fi, the more it divides the bandwidth among each device. Even with the most powerful Wi-Fi routers offering the latest protocols, there can be slowdowns, lags, or dropped connections. More often than not, these breakdowns occur at the most inconvenient times.

Reasons to Choose Hardwired Connections

1. Speed: Hardwired connections, such as Ethernet, can provide faster Internet speeds than Wi-Fi because they don’t split bandwidth.
2. Stability: Unlike Wi-Fi, which can suffer from interference due to other electronic devices, bad weather, or your home’s construction materials, hardwired connections provide a consistent and stable connection.
3. Security: Data transmitted over hardwired connections are generally more secure than data sent over WiFi.

Choosing the Right Ethernet Cable

To make the most out of your hardwired connection, choosing the right Ethernet cable can make all the difference. The Mr. Tronic Flat Cat 6 Ethernet Cable 10m, described as a "High-Speed LAN, ADSL AWG24 Patch Cable," is a fine choice for smaller rooms. However, you may need longer cables for more extensive spaces. In that case, the Mr. Tronic Flat Cat 6 Ethernet Cable 15m, and the Mr. Tronic Flat Cat 6 Ethernet Cable 20m, still sporting the "High-Speed" tag, could be more fitting.

Setting Up Your Hardwired Connection

Setting up your hardwired connection is simple. Begin by finding the Ethernet input on your smart TV. It is generally located near the power cord. Once located, plug one side of your Mr. Tronic Flat Cat 6 Ethernet Cable into your router and the other into your smart TV. This will provide your smart TV with a stable, consistent, and high-speed Internet connection.

Wrapping It Up

So, there we have it. While Wi-Fi offers unrivaled convenience, when it comes to streaming high-quality video content or interactive gaming on your Smart-TV, a hardwired connection is your reliable friend. So get your Mr. Tronic Flat Cat 6 Ethernet Cable 10m, 15m, or 20m today, and enjoy an incredible entertainment experience!
