Android TV Oreo, wired connection

Because I'm keen to view the occasional full HDR broadcasts from BBC and my WiFi is only about 25mbps due to thick walls ( sorry for those for whom that's a good speed !) I just had ethernet wiring installed so I can exceed the BBCs 40mbps minimum requirement for the FULL HDR. A speedtest on my laptop when plugged in to the new port, registered 61.5mbps. So far so good.
However it's very slow on TV. The speedtest.net website take 200+msecs to ping and only registers 5mbps
Is this known issue with Sony TV's ? Does it improve with the additional processing power of the new chip in the XG9505?
Cheers

Hi there,

We'll see what information we can find about this and update you when we can.

Maybe some other members will have some suggestions too.

Best wishes,

All resolved. I 'forgot' the 'remembered' WiFi connections and that seemed to solve the problem. Now getting the full 60mbps.
Cheers
