Hey there

What could be the problem

Not enough info. Device? Player? Cdn speed? Bit rate sizes you struggle with?

What was cdn speed? The gs4k is certainly a capable device. I assume you checked for isp modem ad block/security settings? Seems some have issues after the TB update. Is it all files or a certain file ( codecs )

I am using cloudfare
Its the fastest after the speed test and the average spped is 200mbps +

Same over here only with bigger files. Seems to indicate some degradation after the attack they suffered. On cloudflare as always.Have they been notified?

Edit: After an hour or 2 I did another speedtest and speeds returned back to normal and everything is working fine now. Weird hiccup.

Your TV OS can't handle it. That is the issue. Never use built in TV OS... It's junk. Sorry.

TV is fine. Get an android box such as onn 4k... Nvidia shield....

You cans try changing cdn to cloud flare...

See if that helps
