Wired Roku 4 slow with BGW320
My Roku 4 is direct wired to an ethernet port on the BGW320-505.
The Roku reports a download speed of 91 Mbps with very minimal bandwidth usage from other devices.
Would love some tips to get this speed up to a point where I can stream live TV at full available definition.

I would suspect the ethernet port on the Roku is a T100 not T1000 thus only using 2 pairs within the 4 pairs of the ethernet... If true, getting 91 out of 100 is within acceptable range

Thanks for the response. It's an older Roku so I bet that's it.
I assume a cat5e cable wouldn't be the bottleneck...
