Hi great news fixed the Internet speed (Ethernet) I was only getting 84mbps. So I took the gamble and went and got a tp-link USB 3.0 Gigabit adapter. Fingers crossed, I put in the USB 3.0 slot on TV with ethernet cable fitted and.......... 😊 OMG it worked, I'm now running over 130mbps through ethernet... Problem solved. 😊

Streaming is faster and loads faster. There is still a issue with the Sony bravia core app, it keeps dropping audio to my sound bar during a film but when I switch to TV audio then back to sound bar it works again. Just need sony to fix this then perfect.... 😊 👍 🇬🇧..

Interesting. So it looks a driver for the Realtek RTL8153 is included.
130mbps isn't a hell of a lot though. How fast is your internet supposed to be? You could also try analiti app which can be installed via Play Store.

We only have upto 200mbps on virgin media in the 🇬🇧 UK, but what I'm getting is the same as if I was using WiFi. So I'm happy as ethernet is more stable. Loads faster now. At least it worked and people now know what they can do as a alternative... 😊

I now tried a Realtek RTL8153 based LogiLink USB3 to Gigabit Adapter on an X900F/XF90 with Android TV 9. Unfortunately does not work. So it seems to be limited to newer models. Probably a backup in case of problems with BRAVIA CORE.

@Kuschelmonschter With these Sony TVs you need an adapter that works with Chrome.
So, if you've an Amazon account, try one of these, you've nothing to lose and Amazon are very obliging when it comes to returns.
