iCloud Private Relay slowed down my internet speed

Was watching a 4K video on Youtube and it kept buffering. Checked my internet speed and I was getting around 10-15 mbps (my wifi usually gives 95-110 mbps). Turned private relay off and the speed was back to 100 mbps. I also checked the wifi speed on Chrome and the speed was fine there too (I'm assuming because it doesn't use iCloud private relay).

Does anyone know a fix to this issue? I want to use private relay but I don't want it to affect the wifi speed.

This was tested on my iPhone and MacBook Pro.

I would compare your results using the Safari browser...

I would not use the Private relay if it is your issue; test and compare your results.
