R8500 - Does it support 4K streaming
I just bought the new R8500. Are there any known issues with it? With 20 attached devices and two 4K television I wanted to make sure it didn't bog down like my other one.

Very high quality 4K streaming shouldn’t need more than about 40Mbps, so even over a single gigabit link there should be plenty of capacity there, I’m not sure you would see any benefit at all from an aggregated switch connection.

It would be for the home theater. So 4K streaming/downloads, music and security camera.
