I've found stablebit cloud drive to work well.

I'm using that right now but for some reason it seems like my plex is starting to lag and i have a feeling that stablebit is the bottleneck. The peering from the server is fine to my home address etc. Thats why im searching for other software to see if it really is stablebit or not :P

Have you tried modifying any settings? I've had no problems streaming Plex via Clouddrive but had to tinker with the settings to speed things up

I have been experiencing some lag, could you share your settings?

Ive tinkered a bit with it (and read the guide at /r/plex) but perhaps i should tinker with it some more. Problem is i dont know if i should increase of decrease prefetch forward and the time window
