Question: I’ve got Netflix and Max on my Samsung Smart TV downstairs. I’m running everything over Wi-Fi since the router is upstairs, and the signal strength is actually great—I don't even need an extender down here. Netflix works flawlessly; it streams in HD without any buffering at all. However, Max is being incredibly sluggish. The resolution constantly dips between HD and something that looks painfully like 240p. Would using a powerline adapter between floors fix this by providing enough bandwidth for a steady stream, or am I stuck running an Ethernet cable if I want it fixed? Thanks!
