How to Use Ethernet with SuperBox for a Stable Connection

Quick answer: To use Ethernet with your SuperBox, plug one end of an Ethernet cable into your router and the other end into the SuperBox’s network port, then confirm the connection in the Android network settings. A wired connection is the most stable way to connect because it avoids Wi-Fi congestion, walls and distance problems.

Applies to: SuperBox S7 Ultra ($449.00, 128GB), S7 Max ($399.00, 64GB) and S7 Pro ($359.00, 32GB) units sold by the official store, running Android 12 with up to 6K video output and covered by a 30-day return window and 1-year warranty.

What you need

You need a router or switch with a free LAN port, and an Ethernet cable long enough to reach the SuperBox. Most home routers provide the cable’s network connection automatically (DHCP), so no extra login is required.

Step 1 — Connect the cable

Plug one end of the Ethernet cable into a LAN port on your router. Plug the other end into the network port on the SuperBox. Push until you hear or feel the clip lock in on both ends.

Step 2 — Confirm the connection in Android settings

On the SuperBox, open the Android network or Wi-Fi settings screen and check that the wired/Ethernet connection shows as connected. If it does not, unplug and reconnect the cable and restart the SuperBox.

Step 3 — Disable or forget Wi-Fi if you want to use only Ethernet

If you want the box to prefer the wired connection, disconnect it from Wi-Fi in the Android network settings. The SuperBox will then use the Ethernet connection for network traffic.

When Ethernet helps most

Ethernet helps when your Wi-Fi drops, when the box is far from the router, or when many devices share the same Wi-Fi network. A wired connection will not make your internet plan faster than its subscribed speed, but it removes most wireless interference from the equation.

Limitations

Results depend on your router, cable quality and internet plan. If the box has no network port or your model differs, check the user guide. This guide makes no speed or buffering guarantees.

Common questions

Does the SuperBox come with an Ethernet cable?

Check the “What’s in the box” section on your product page or the included accessories list before assuming a cable is included.

Will Ethernet fix buffering?

A stable wired connection removes Wi-Fi-related instability, which is one common cause of buffering. See the buffering guide for the full checklist.

Can I use Wi-Fi and Ethernet at the same time?

You can leave both connected, but the box will normally prefer one active network connection. Use the network settings screen to control which one it uses.
