Is my internet speed ok for 4k HEVC streaming?

[Helen Barber]

Just downloaded a steam game and my max download is 8.4mbs

Is that good enough for Plex streaming?

My data is on my HTPC (ethernet) via Plex to Plex on my Nvidia shield TV

My Nvidia shield is connected via 5ghz WiFi.... I would like to add ethernet but I would need to drill holes through brickwork

I do own one of these - TP-Link RE355 AC1200 Wi-Fi

^ It has a ethernet net port out so turns WiFi into ethernet

Any advice?

Ahhhhhh I see.. I thought it was all to do with my Plusnet fibre... Makes sense it's my home network.

I will have a good test and see

Just one obstacle, the wife!
