Android Central Question

My interenet speed is 30 mbps until I turn on my H96 Pro+ Android Box and it's connected with ethernet cable and then it drops to 4 mbps for the whole network/all devices. The speed goes back up to 30 mbps when the Android box is powered off.
Any help would be grately appreciated - Thanks

Welcome to Android Central! To simplify things, I merged your duplicate threads.

What's the brand and model of your router? Look at its manual to see how to log into its settings, and make sure QoS (Quality of Service) is turned off.

The box is probably just loading something which is using up your bandwidth. Close all the background apps and disable OS updates.

Also make sure to close the browser app (not just background it). Some boxes have issues that allow the browser to keep streaming video ads in the background.
