Did you try browsing fast.com (powered by Netflix) and see what speed you are connecting to Netflix's servers?

You may have a Unifi 30Mbps account but due to various reasons you may not be connecting to Netflix at full speed:-

1. Your modem or router may be the bottleneck.

2. You may experience 2.4 GHz interference (neighbours, microwave, etc).

3. There may be congestion at Unifi's side.

4. Your location may be far away from the nearest Netflix PoP (Point of Presence).

5. There may be congestion, other issues or slowness between your location to your ISP and to Netflix.

MiBox does support UHD and HDR from Netflix. So that's not the issue.

What is ur output resolution on the MiBox, I found that to see UHD and HDR content on miBox u would need to set output resolution 4k 60 and output 10bit from colour space. Also, try to restart box using the settings after u change the settings to see if that helps.

Hi All,
