I have a cat5 cable that runs from my router through a managed switch in my home office and then to the back side of my AV system. I have a second managed switch at the same spot where my AV equipment sits. I started getting a connection issue to my Amazon fire cube using the wired connection. I switched over to a wireless connection which works pretty well. Sometimes my streaming services will show a spinning icon like it is buffering or reconnecting. I ran a speed test using the application on my Fire Cube and get around 250 Mbps. I plugged my ethernet back into the Fire Cube and it only shows about 90-100 Mbps. This does not make any sense to me. But, I did want to reconnect the second switch so that my other devices at the AV rack could be connected to the network. I am able to manage the first switch after the router, but unable to see the second switch when I recconect it. Is there an inexpensive way to directly connect to the switch to test without having to purchase a laptop?
Thanks,
Will
