Remote streams max out at 2mbps

Again, I ask for logs.

2 Mbps is the PlexPass bandwidth limit when no direct connection is available. If this happens on a local LAN, likely causes are:

  1. Firewall ports
  2. multiple subnets incorrectly configured.
  3. LAN IP address range not RFC-1918 compliant.
  4. plex.direct private domain being blocked by DNS/router.

Reasons to transcode: The player cannot (due to settings or media itself) accept the file “AS IS”
