Apple TV ethernet speed

[mrneilypops 2]

For Apple TV Gen4 users.

I was surprised to discover an issue with Apple TV ethernet speed during some tests with my new Netgear R7800 router+DD-WRT+AirVPN

I have a 200/100 fibre connection.

 

AIrVPN London via Netgear R7800 into Apple TV ethernet gives me 50Mbps down/60Mbps up.

AIrVPN London via Netgear R7800 into Apple TV 5GHz. wifi gives me 60Mbps down/70Mbps up.

 

I was surprised 

 

The Apple TV only has a 100Mbbs port but I expected a better speed...

Just a note that I hope might help ATV users on AirVPN
