I have a Nighthawk R6900P Router connected via ethernet to my Samsung TV (model UN55NU800DF). I speed tested the connection the other day after a router restart and had 100 Mbps download and 30-40 Mbps upload (I have 500 Mbps download service). Today the download speed is at 0.5-2 Mbps while upload remains 40+ Mbps. I have another ehternet connection from my router and that device is consistenly 400+ Mbps download and 40+ Mbps upload.
Quality of Service is not currenly enabled on my router.
I thought maybe there was a cable issue, but that doesn't explain why upload speeds reamain high on my TV.
Anyone experienceing a similar problem? Are there router settings I should adjust? It is quite frustrating as the low download speed is causing significant buffer when streaming video content.
Thank you for any help.
