That may be a cause of your issues. 11 Mbps is not much, and easily congested. Any other device on your network that tries something online, may disrupt your Apple TV viewing.


4K HDR movies require a recommended speed of 25 Mbps,

4K movies require a recommended speed of 15 Mbps,

1080p HD movies require a recommended speed of 8 Mbps,

720p HD movies require a recommended speed of 6 Mbps,

SD movies require a recommended speed of 2.5 Mbps.
