Three 5G broadband slow on Android TV compared to other devices

Hi Everyone, I’ve got the Three 5G Broadband with the ZTE router and it’s been great so far. All the devices have speeds of 400mbps and 30up however my android tv has speeds of 32mbps and 30mbps.

Does anyone know a fix for this as I can’t watch any 4k content but on the other devices, I can.

Any fixes?

Have you tried connecting the tv to another network like your phone hotspot?

My philips android tv has a similar problem. But that's down to poor tv software, not the router or network.
 
No not with Ethernet, it is connected to the Wi-Fi 5GHZ
Can an Android TV browser access https://fast.com ?

25 Mbps should be sufficient for 4K UHD streaming.

Lack of 4K content could be due to the apps lacking support. Perhaps check the age of the device and app versions versus 4K support. YouTube is highly likely to support 4K content.

Just out of interest, is that sustained at 60 Mbps for multiple minutes or under a minute bursts up to 60 Mbps with longer idle periods?

Disney+ 4K UHD bursts higher than 60 Mbps for me but never sustains its burst throughput. Does that service recommend more than 25 Mbps as the required throughput?
