Which server are you using? I haven't noticed any speed reductions but I have a few added for downloading the same time on different priorities.

Free Usenet Server

https://speedium.nl/sign-up/?lang=en They are Free to signup now not sure for how long but they are stress testing. 20 connections. 4000 Days retention. No speed restrictions (currently capped at 250Mbps). Amsterdam server. :)

Very weird I max my 200Mbps line on the servers I have and they are all using the normal 119 port

I did some further troubleshooting and swapped some routers around which has appeared to have fixed the problem.Thanks for sharing your insights.
 
@wingnut771 What do you use for RD? A kodi addon?

Recently discovered that Alldebrid actually allows you to link to a media folder in Kodi. That https://myfiles.alldebrid.com is actually served through cloudflare CDN meaning zero buffering for a 70GB .mkv movie file :D

using gaia addon in kodi, works great. i also recently discovered rd also has cloudflare option. just log into rd website go to "my accounts" and change cdn from automatic to cloudflare. everything is local from then on.

Have you tried Exodus or Seren?

Maybe it's just my but when you are searching for streams in Gaia it takes a little while and you can't cancel and view already found streams.

i have never seen 4k with exodus and don't like layout of seren, much prefer gaia (similar to exodus), all shows i watch appear in progress linked to trakt. mine takes 30 secs to scan. disable "season packs" under scraping helps speed things up. also set under tools/manual, enable secondary sorting, size with quality (cached content appears at top of list). also set your linespeed under bandwidth filters to filter out the files that are too big to stream (i find it doesn't work so well with movies).
