Thanks to all for the help. I am now considering two options, direct longer cable from router to streamer, or use of a WIfi extender with shorter cable. Either way I am now considering using a Supra CAT8 cable. More expensive but with better shielding and connectors.
@akg_ca Thanks for the detailed response. You have me rethinking the long cable approach. What extender can you recommend? With as of yet limited research I identified a RangeXTD which can be purchased for ~$50. Might there be better options?
