I've got a Plex server running on a server I rent.
I can stream from the server to my laptop over WiFi (2.4GHz) in original quality (the file I am using is 14Mbps) with no issues, no buffering.
On my Chromecast though, I get constant buffering unless I turn the quality down. The Chromecast is connected to the network at well over 200Mbps via 802.11ac.
I thought this might be a Chromecast issue so I've got a Roku stick as well. This has a speed test app which reports speeds of 30Mbps+. However, in Plex I still get constant buffering.
I'm totally stumped as to what is going on here. Can anybody shed some light?
