I gave my Fire TV Stick Ethernet without Amazons adapter and streaming finally stayed smooth

News Summary
- The Fire TV Stick has only one USB port, which it uses for power.
- Thankfully, there's a simple, inexpensive solution: a micro USB OTG cable.
- Based on my limited testing, the wired connection (unsurprisingly) is way more stable than connecting my old Fire TV stick using Wi-Fi.
- However, the benefits based on my testing are very limited, which defeats the purpose of using a wired connection, which can increase buffering and buffering lag, which I would've liked if the Stick had a built-in LAN port.
If theres one thing that stops me from using my Fire TV Stick as my primary entertainment device, its the shoddy WiFi connectivity.
