Review on 🔌 Enhanced Chromecast with 100Mbps Ethernet Adapter by Matthew Perez

This cheap device initially worked well. It did exactly what it was designed to do, which was to provide Ethernet services to my Fire TV Stick. I doubt the validity of the reviews and complain that it's no faster than a Wi-Fi connection with a flash drive. Barring a bad or degraded Wi-Fi connection, there's no particular reason why connecting your Fire Stick to Ethernet should improve speeds significantly. This is not the fault of this Ethernet device and therefore does not justify a negative review of the device. This device runs at a maximum Ethernet speed of 100Mbps, which is good enough for streaming services and is faster than most people can actually get through the broadband system they connect to. Modern Wi-Fi can be faster than 100 Mbps. So if you're already getting faster or faster connections, don't expect switching to Ethernet to have any impact.>> DEVICE FAILS AFTER VERY LITTLE USE The device stopped working about 4 weeks after us. As an IT consultant (and network specialist) with over 30 years of experience, I see no reason to stop him other than that the device has failed internally and is therefore not working properly. It's worth noting that the device was only on for a few hours on average at this time of the evening, as I turn off my TV system (and Fire Stick, etc.) when I'm not using it. Also, during that time I was out for more than two weeks, during which time it wasn't on. So if it was a fault in the electronics then I suspect it would have failed much sooner than it did (if it had been left 24/7 as is normally the case). It is expected to fail in less than 1 week of normal use (i.e. when left on 24/7). I see many other reviews complaining about devices not working upon arrival. I suspect the manufacturer has a quality issue. This isn't surprising at all considering this device costs $10. Luckily, Revain offered to supply a new one even though the free replacement period had expired a few weeks ago. Let's hope the new one lasts a lot longer than the one that died.
