I’ve had the same experience as you. Not a single error since switching to wifi.
Got a tip for us?

Same here. Switched to Wi-Fi a few weeks back, no issues since
So here's a bit of extra info. The Wi-Fi workaround continues to work. But interestingly enough, my PS5 started exhibiting the same issue (displaying Ethernet Cable Connected/Disconnected) over and over. Ended up also switching it to Wi-Fi. At this point it looks like an issue with either my router or neighborhood FiOS setup.
Got the same message a couple of times within a minute just now on tvOS 15.4. but then it went away. I have seen this before on older tvOS version, but it was quite long ago – wonder why it would suddenly pop up now. Also on Ethernet only in my case, no WiFi involved.
changed to a new Docsis 3.1 cable modem and the no network connection error message raised its ugly head. works fine vast majority of the time even when I get the error. AS someone said it that's because the buffer hasn't emptied. I do have an occasional dropout tho.
I restarted my ATV to see if that clears.
I had this issue years ago as well. Forgot what made it go away. I'm wired too not wireless. IF I get annoyed enough maybe I switch to wifi.

I don’t really understand how two devices with four years between generations can have the same bug. I have a house full of tech and never have this issue with anything else.
Has anyone summated the anomaly to Apple Feedback/AppleTV yet? They can't read your minds so with all you complain it might get fixed!
Started getting this issue on one of my Apple TV’s. It’s connected straight to a ‘slave’ tp link deco unit which itself is connected to the ‘master’ deco.
I have two other Apple TV’s one on wifi and one connected to the master deco. Neither of these have an issue.

Hmm… So you think it can be related to the Apple TV being connected to a switch that in turn is connected to a switch in the ”master” router? That suits my setup at least and I got the message again out of the blue yesterday.
Anyone having the Apple TV connected directly to the router switch also getting the message or are you all on a separate switch?
But now it's been totally fine for a couple of weeks. Nothing really changed that I know of. Wierd?
