When i connect to my jellyfin server to stream/download video/audio the speeds are tied to my internet speed. If my internet speed drops so does the transfer rate from my server. However it seems tied to my internet download speed (which varies from 0.5 to 80 mb/s), not the upload speed(which is usually 2 mb/s), and if i disconect my router from the internet I’m able to react the maximum allowed by my hardware. Is this normal? Or maybe something is wrong, or needs special configuration?
If relevant, I connect to a tp link router, which connects to the router from my isp.
If your server is local, meaning it is on your network, then you connect via the local netowork. If you are both wired, then you’ll likely be connected via 1Gbe. If you server is wired, and you connect wirelessly, you are limited by the wireless connection speed. If your jellyfin server is remote, meaning physically hosted offsite, then you will be limited by your internet speed and the speed of the jellyfin servers connection.
If the connection is local and its dropping, check out your jellyfin servers resources to see bottlenecks. Also see if you can check your tplink router and see if the CPU is spiking.
