Your TV's Ethernet port is probably slower than you'd like: 3 ways to check

I wired every TV in our house to Ethernet and figured that was that—full speed, done. Then I pulled up my Ubiquiti controller one afternoon and saw a number I didn't expect. Every TV in the house had negotiated at 100Mbps. My Mac Mini had Gigabit, but the smart TVs? Every one of them was at or near 100Mbps. I went down a rabbit hole after that and learned something I wish I'd known sooner—most smart TV manufacturers use 10/100 Ethernet ports. Whether you have a premium model or a budget one, it doesn't matter.
