Hi all, perhaps a silly question but I want to sure about the kit I will need (if any) to ensure I have a buffer free streaming experience.
I currently have:
Synology DS918+
Cat 8 cable running from NAS to router
Router is a BT Home Hub 5
When I try to stream a 4K film it tends to lag and buffer after a few seconds. Standard definition 1080p stuff is fine which leads me to think it's the router? I need to invest in a good one I guess as it's pretty old and I didn't have the need to change it at all but for 4K content I guess I need to?
Any advice on this would be great
Btw I know cat 8 cable is overkill but it was £1 more than a cat 6
Thanks in advance
