What the gently caress NOW you have an ethernet port on the Chromecast?

God dammit I got to buy another one of these fuckers just to get a useable Chromecast.

Aren't they like 30 bucks?

Absolutely, AC can't hang with that consistently. I'm just irritated it took them so long...first gen Chromecast is an absolute joke for anything beyond 480p.

2nd gen Chromecast struggles doing 1080p at times and because it's on 5 Ghz the range is terrible. First gen is only GN so even basic 720p causes it to struggle. An ethernet port was an obvious choice and should have happened earlier.

Did you not realize you were beta testing an inexpensive product?
