My Plex server is on my Windows 10 PC and has an ethernet cable to my router. My TV is also on an ethernet cord. How do I find out the bandwidth between the 2?
Thanks!

Some routers report a rough bandwidth for certain connections.
Some smart tvs allow installing speed tracking apps.
If this is indeed all wired lines, checking the individual network nodes will do the trick most of the time (unless your lines are extremely long).

I don’t know how to tell the maximum potential bandwidth between the two. But I’ve noticed when logged into a browser watching the dashboard when playing a show that it hits a peak right when the show starts, presumably when initially filling the client buffer. When I was just watching that it hit 121 Mbps on my wireless network connection. Then I rewound 10 seconds forcing it to refill the buffer and it hit 130Mbps. A different client upstairs hit 168Mbps.

That is almost certainly 100Mbps. No (?) TVs have > 100Mbps Ethernet.
