cable recommendation please from router to wall?

I see alot of ethernet cable recommendations here and while I am in the process of shopping for an upgrade, I was wondering if I should also be looking to replace the coaxial/bnc cable that runs from router to wall

currently using a cheap amazon cable for this purpose (then from router 1 cheap amazon ethernet cable to tv which works great and 1 decent chord company ethernet cable to my streamer)

should I be looking at something like a good audiophile type bnc cable to go from router to wall

would this effect tv performance?

thanks in advance

yes modem/router combo setup from cable company

I guess what I'm trying to understand is why upgrade just the ethernet cable when it appears there are 2 parts to this chain?

is the router to wall portion less meaningful?

The coax cables supplied by internet provider are all one needs, plenty good enough quality.

What about the cable from the junction box to your house? What about the wiring in the modem/router? Probably should change capacitors and other parts too while you're at it. 😐

Lots of variables outside your control?  What's in your walls, splitters, what's outside where the ISP comes into the home.  That being said you cant control those and assuming its all good just make sure to use Cat 6 instead of Cat 5 for best performance.
