If it's inside your own network, it depends on your local network speeds. Most routers usually have gigabit ethernet ports. WiFi depends on the signal quality
If outside your network, you'll be capped by your upload speed
That's interesting, I'd never thought of that before. Is there some metric to measure this by? Like, do manufacturers report what cpu (chip?) their router has? I haven't seen anything like that on listings for amateur products, at least.
Yes, most routers have a listed CPU speed, in GHz. But there are also routers with more CPU cores, so the raw speed can be a little misleading. It really depends on a lot of factors. Your router, modem, local network conditions, and the PC you're running Plex on can ALL be potential bottlenecks when streaming.
