Apple 4K tv throttling my Mbps download speeds
Anyone else find a fix for slow download speeds yet for the apple 4k tv gen. 2? Purchased two days ago, and already had 2 software updates but during initial setup I received a warning message stating that low internet connection spreed could impact streaming movies. This struck me funny as my ISP is providing over 200Mbps. I verify this every once in a while and reverified since receiving the Apple warning. I am connecting the Apple 4K TV via Ethernet cable, connected to LAN. All of my network hardware and wires including HDMI wires are all for HighSpeed…high bandwidth use. I used the Apple 4K TV and from within their App Store downloaded multiple internet Speedtest applications which all report between 28 and 38Mbps while connected via Ethernet into LAN. I took my laptop turned off Wi-Fi and connected to the LAN using the exact same Ethernet cable at the same location of the Apple 4K TV and ran the exact same tests from the same app developers and I am yielding 350 to 380Mbps and 5hen on Wi-Fi I just wanted a baseline and that returned 320Mbps Download Speeds.
I was never expecting the Apple 4K TV and my laptop to report the exact same download speeds but I do expect them to be within the same ballpark and to be honest I would expect Apple 4K TV to be well over 100Mbps and that just IS NOT THE CASE.
I restarted my Luxul router and Spectrum modem, rebooted Apple 4K TV and these Download speeds never increase.
I am able to stream movies and have not yet experienced issues but I only have a few hours of testing things out but I really want to mitigate this device from what apparently seems that it is throttling or bottlenecking my Download speeds….. I called tech support but they told me they feel I should not experience any issues and had no answers to this issue. They also voiced to me that Apple is not throttling but it’s just hard to believe that based on my testing pattern it’s clear that there is something within the Apple 4K TV that is preventing my from getting 300Mbps download speeds.
please help….anyone….. maybe I should just return this Apple device.
