That does make sense, yes.
Your original post made none.
The WiFi on firesticks is more than sufficient for any iptv, you can use ethernet but it's not needed in 90% of cases.
The WiFi in firesticks seem to be rubbish when my friend was tethering the link I posted above is that a good box to buy? Wi-Fi 2.4Ghz & 5G

That is using his mobile data, it wouldn't matter what device or app he was using it's the flakey connection to blame
I recently bought a S905X4 from aliexpress, installed slimbox rom on it and it works great. I bought it to replace a GCCWGTV which kept losing the wifi connection. The new box hasn't lost connection at all.

14% off the tube version is the best deal. That’s been on for weeks. Decent discount on the pro version but can’t justify that price for an iptv box(all I would use it for). Be good for some though.

I have no issue buying another Nvidia Shield Pro. I have had the Nvidia 2017 for about 5 years. It is a fantastic machine for both watching iptv and when I want to play games on it. The best thing
as well is that the other half has no issues using it. I was going to wait out for a new model but I see nothing pointing towards them releasing a new one soon. The only reason I am buying a new one is that the 2017 is eating remote batteries. I'm changing them every two weeks.

That’s for that useful info. If I was only getting it just for IPTV then would you just recommend the tube?

To be fair mate I don't even know the specs on the tube. I just go by the spec on the pro and i know it's the same chipset that they use in the Nintendo switch so I know they are good.
The nvidia beats anything hands i have tried for games or iptv.
++ might be same chipset but less ram++

Depends on your usage.
For IPTV only, nvidia or any expensive official Android TV box will run the same apps as a cheap one just as well. The reason to consider Nvidia or higher end android TV is for their native functionality such as 4k netflix.
If you just want a good quality device for IPTV, go with formuler or BuzzTV.

Ah I understand now.
I run firesticks in different rooms to the router, the WiFi capability is not the issue it's the fact you're tethering from a mobile phone but by the sounds of it you've already made your mind up so good luck with it!
