Switch added, limited connection on 1 device

I have recently added a ProSafe GS108 switch to my home network. My wired pc's are able to access the internet but my media streaming Android box has very limited connection meaning I can do a speed test from the media box, access some streaming content but I can't access Netflix or any apps like gmail, playstore, etc. Any ideas?

    Hello ElitePCgamer, 

     

     

    Welcome to the community! 

     

    The GS108 is only a passthrough switch and does not have any QoS settings so I don't think it has anything to do with the limited connection on the Android Box. Did you test if you get the same behavior if the Android Box is connected directly to the router? 

     

    Thanks,
