21 Amazon Fire TV Tips for Streaming Fans Posted by Eric Griffith 11 Oct 2020 - still valid in 2023
Important tip from post - Don’t Discount the HDMI Extender
You’d think that having such a small, self-contained device to stick into an HDMI port would make it easier, but that proximity to the center of the TV (in some cases) can make it hard for the Wi-Fi signals to find the device properly—and Wi-Fi is how it talks to the remotes and the internet. That’s why Amazon throws in a little 3-inch HTML extender dongle with the Fire TV Sticks. Use it. It makes it easier to plug and unplug the Fire TV Stick, easier to connect to the network, and in my experience, even keeps the device cooler.
