ethernet control
The 360 box does not have Ethernet control. Does that mean apps such as iPlayer and ITVX will be viewed through Wifi?

Strange, I thought all TV boxes had the option for ethernet?
From the OP posts he has a V6 box and been advised that the box will be just be software updated to 360, so the hardware stays the same with a ethernet connector.

Are you able to tell me if the 360 box can connect with an Ethernet cable?
The connectivity requirements between TV360 & V6 are identical. The TiVo-firmware on a V6 allows certain functions to be controlled "remotely" over the Ethernet connection.
There is no such function in the Horizon-firmware on a TV360 - but this has no bearing on the streaming apps which still use an internet connection, best over Ethernet.
Why best over Ethernet? I understand the Ethernet port on the V6/TV360 hardware is only 100mb.
No streaming service requires anything like 100Mbps - not even it's UHD, HDR and Dolby Atmos. And wired trumps wireless every time.
