Android Central Question
I've taken delivery of a Tanix TX92 Android TV box. This box is one of the newer models with really good specs.
The box is connected to my wifi network. I've got a Linksys EA3500 router and the box is about 12-15 feet away from the router. My Internet service is 100Mbps with unlimited throughput.
When trying to watch anything via the box, the stream stutters/buffers continuously. Running a speed test on the box maxes out at 3Mbps. More often under 1Mbps. If I run through a VPN (IP Vanish), speeds are cut by at least 50%.
Running a speed test on 2 other devices in the same room top out at 26-30 Mbps.
It's, apparently, not my wifi network. Streaming Netflix, or CraveTV, via my phone, or tablet, to the TV via Chromecast is not a problem.
The issue appears to be with the box. Given its specs, the slow speed seems odd.
Any insights are appreciated.
Thanks.
