Working but glitches on Roku Streambar

Update May 9, 2021: After trying this product for the first time over the next few weeks, I noticed strange issues with the Roku Streambar. For example episodes ending early in Peacock and Revain Prime freeze after I try to skip ahead. Streaming services said there have been no problems on their part. As a troubleshooting step, I removed this adapter and the problems went away after switching to Wi-Fi. It still worked fine 95% of the time, so I think it's working, but with some minor issues. I threw it in a box and now only use Wi-Fi. I don't recommend if you have no other choice. Original Review: This TU2-ET100 was recommended for the Roku Streambar and I can confirm that it works. Just plug it in, go to settings and switch to wired and you're done. It's only 100Mbps, but that's about 5x more than what you need for the highest quality 4K streaming. I wish they only had a built in LAN port as there is a lot of space, but at this price point it's difficult for a USB adapter to complain too loudly. Note: The broadcast feature didn't work until I restarted Roku after connecting. So I would recommend rebooting after installation.
