If I hook ethernet cable to wifi connected point and tv, will it work to improve streaming?

Hi, Mike Pace.

Thanks for reaching out with your question. Let's take a look at things and see what we can do.

You can hardwire elements on your network, like a TV. Because you are dealing with a mesh network, the speed will still be managed similarly to your TV, but it can increase reliability if you are having any issues with interference or other environmental factors that can affect wireless communications.

It's worth testing this out and see if it works better for you. You can also try using priority devices to make your TV a preferred device to see how that impacts performance.

Let me know if you need anything else. Thanks.
