You should connect the access point to your router via Ethernet to improve coverage throughout the house. Running a separate cable is not necessary if you're using an existing Ethernet port.

This phrase suggests something is going off track or not making sense.

The device is close to my living room Smart TV, which remains connected via Wi-Fi. I aim to install a PoE switch so the TV can be powered directly, while linking a wireless access point to the network.

Can you connect a cable directly to the device? A weak wireless signal might not be ideal.
