I figured the first step is generally making sure everything is wired fine and to do that I basically went to all the drops I was using and tested with iperf to my server after making sure the wiring was still correct with my tester. A minute and a half to download a file 5x bigger than the 23 minute episode that Plex wouldn't play. I made a 5GB test file on my server and downloaded it at around 57MB/s which took 1:29 to download. I have hard-wired Ethernet everywhere (no powerline adapters or MoCa, just normal Cat5e), and seven 802.11AC WiFi access points spread throughout my house all running off my 1Gbps up/down fiber connection (but Speedtest is usually around 800Mbps down and 940Mbps up). I decided to try a test, since I know my internet is good. It's a normal issue I, or my family that I share my Plex server with, have, and it's very annoying. As usually, I quickly had issues with freezing and then a pop up saying that my connection to the server wasn't good enough to watch a 1GB file TV show episode. Today I was trying to watch a simple TV show on the new updated fresh Plex 2.0 app on my Apple TV 4K.
