GT1 Wifi speed drop

beerzerker

Hi guys,  Ive owned this box for about 3 weeks and thus far have been impressed.  However, something thats been happening is that my download speeds will drop for no reason and stay low.  Usually I have 100-114mb download speed for a day or 2, then suddenly it will drop to 10-12mb according to speed test.  This has nothing to do with traffic as resetting the gt1 box will fix the problem and Im back to 100-114 down.  This if further complicated since Im running IPVanish vpn on the box, which drops speed even further.  When IPVanish is turned on, I have regular 25mb download and after a day or 2, it drops to 3-4mb download.   Again, resetting the GT1 box will fix this.  This doesnt affect any of my other devices so Im sure its something to do with the Beelink GT1.  Obviously 3-4mb will not enable any playback or streaming so its annoying to say the least.  Hopefully this isnt going to get worse... Id hate to spend extra on an amazon tv box but my friend has one and those are pretty stable.

Any suggestions?

No.  This has happened numerous times and other devices are not connected.  Even if someone was downloading, once the download stopped the GT1 internet speeds should go back up and they don't.  The only thing that fixes the issue is rebooting the GT1.  I'm assuming its a firmware issue.

I can confirm that this is indeed an issue:  I have a subscription for IPTV HD 1080P service and every 30 seconds to 1 minute, the picture breaks up in burry squares for about 5 seconds.
