Should I use Wi-Fi or Ethernet on the Aero?
Both work well on the Manhattan Aero. Choose based on what’s easiest for your setup:
- Ethernet gives the most reliable connection and is the best option if your Aero is near the router or you can run a cable to it. The Aero has a 100 Mbps Ethernet port, which is more than enough for 4K streaming (4K usually maxes out around 25 Mbps). Any standard Ethernet cable (Cat5e, Cat6, or similar) will do. An Ethernet cable isn’t included in the box.
- Wi-Fi is convenient and works well as long as the Aero gets a solid signal where it sits. Modern Wi-Fi can comfortably handle 4K streaming.
If you’re using Ethernet and want to switch Wi-Fi off completely, you can do that under Settings → Network → Wireless Network → Turn Off.
