Well, I had kind of issue in the past plex not using all available network bandwidth, but I don’t know why the solution hasn’t been posted on the forum yet…
As far as I remember switching the Plex servers from XPLAY (pre oct 8 update) did the trick. I have two Plex instances at home, one for testing and the other one for “production”. After I connected to the test instance PMS/XPLAY started to use full network bandwidth again. I really don’t know if it was a PMS or XPLAY issue.
Hope this will help you.
