Iperf tests the speed the OS can move data at; Kodi-level connections are always slower. That said, the maximum permitted bit rate for a UHD blu ray remux is 128Mb/s I think, so you don't really need to move data faster than that. On other platforms there is a way to mount the connection at OS level and have Kodi treat it as a local folder, but I've never figured out how to do that on the Fire Stick - maybe someone can tell us?
Which would suggest a Gigabit Ethernet adaptor is pretty much pointless.
I've have tried both SMB and NFS with no difference.
Am I missing something here or does that make sense?
Thanks for clarifying my understanding. I agree with you about the 128Mbps, I was just testing limits. Cheers.
