If you are remote from your server, then the speed that’s important is your upload speed, not download. ---

I mean, what is the upload speed of your internet at your server? Was the 300 mbps you posted the upload speed? ---

You have to consider the upload speed of your server and the download speed of your client, the lowest value will prevail. ---

i don’t clearly understand so let me repeat my issues: for example on my PC (which is the server plex) i got an episode of a TV show , i want to download it on my phone, my speedtest upload (with ethernet cable) is 300mbit/s , and on my phone download is around ( on wifi ) 150 mbit/s , but the download is taing too much long with these values, maybe i miss somethign about how plex sync on other device ---

Please start downloading something, let it work for about 1 minute, then stop it and grab the logs from both the phone and your server. ---
