Slow Netflix on Nvidia Shield

[Vin2]

Hello everybody,

when I Route my traffic through my OPNsense, Netflix on my Shield turns barely useable.

I checked it via Speedtest to fast.com and the traffic graph in the gui.

Im using IDPS, Squid and a VPN connection, however even when I deactivate everything its still slow.

Besides the Speedtest via the Netflix app fails and just shows 0, withouth OPNsense it works flawlessly.

Is it possible that im missing some NAT/Outbound rule anywhere?

Thank you in advance.

Regards

I have Netflix running on 4 TV's 2 are 4K. not sure what slowness you are referring to.

This may be related to your OPNsense device hardware or your internet connection. Please provide a detailed information on your hardware for your OPNsense and how is your Shield connected.

Can you try netflix on your smart tv app or a chromecast or something similar (non shield) and see if the same problem exist?

I had slowness as well and the problem was the hardware offloading. Once I disabled all hardware offloading and filtering it was normal.
