Hi
OK there is probably a thread to this anyway so pointing me in the right direction would be nice
Here's the question:
I have 4 Apple TV's around the house. One I want to connect to an ethernet cable that is near my computer the rest use wireless!
Can I have one Apple Tv on the Ethernet and the rest on wireless????
iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)
Hey Rawlo,
I see that you wish to set up some Apple TVs around your house, one of which you would like to use a wired Ethernet connection and the others you would prefer to use a Wi-Fi connection. This can be done quite simply when setting up each individual Apple TV, and there is an article that talks about these steps in the set up procedure:

1. Network Configuration
Have your network password (if you use one) and your Apple Remote handy to configure your Apple TV. Make sure there are no obstructions between the remote and Apple TV. Read more about using and troubleshooting the Apple Remote.
If you:
- Use a wired Ethernet network to connect, Apple TV automatically detects your network.
- Use a wireless network to connect, Apple TV helps you select and configure your network connection.
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

Hi - Thanks for the reply - The problem probably wasn't stated very well by me. I can connect physically the ethernet but Apple TV says I must connect to the same network for home sharing. It picks up the home sharing from the wireless network but not from the ethernet.
