[Darren Gearns]

So basically I’m having this problem with the Ethernet connection on my M8S Android tv box it runs fine through WiFi but when hardwired it drops out every 30 mins!!! All I have to do is unplug the Ethernet re plug it and it carry’s on running for another 30 mins and the same thing happens can anyone help me with this issue I’ve used several new cables cat6 & cat 7, I’ve also checked it’s not my router so I’m stuck between a Rock & a hard place

Please help

You're stuck between a bad Ethernet transceiver and a manufacturer or seller. The Ethernet transceiver is probably overheating, so they'd have to replace the box. But, from experience, I'm guessing that it's a design problem, the location of the transceiver doesn't allow it to cool properly, so it's going to happen with a replacement also. So if you can use WiFi, just go that path.
