I am at a lost I spent many many hours on the phone with sony trying to troubleshoot why my tv loses . when watching the network monitor my tv will run around 22mbs while streaming a 4k movie all of sudden it will drop down to.0002 and the movie will buffer forever. A few minutes ago I ran a speed test to see if i lose 100% net . Currently my net will still run a speed test while my tv has no net. I have ran the tv hardwired and wireless same results.I also have ran my tv through a s8000 to see if that would help but no luck also.
- Make sure you don't have your TV in Traffic Prioritization. Also give it more Bandwidth in Bandwidth Allocation and disable share excess so it can always have that amount (make sure other devices have enough)
How do i disable share excess ?
- From the 3 line icon on Bandwidth Allocation - have to do it from Download and Upload.
