Speed issues with leelbox and VPN

by beatbox21

16GB Leelbox. Ethernet connection. I get about 65MBs with no VPN. When I log into VPN it drops to 8-10 MBs. Similar results when I use wifi instead of ethernet. I log in via the PIA android app. I've tried multiple servers with same results.

By comparison, on my laptop, when I enable PIA locally, I only lose 5%-10% of my Internet speed.

Thoughts?

That doesn't appear to be an Android TV box. Try the Android sub.

Unfortunately cheap scam boxes try to trick people into buying a box with Android's phone OS on it. Android TV is a different OS that is made for TVs.

Check your DNS settings on the router and the Android TV. Also, try obfuscated servers in settings, you might be getting throttled. It's close to the situation I had with NordVPN, when Comcast was throttling me as it seems. Obfuscation helped to bypass that.
