Question about My Upload Data

[franciscoaurino 2]

Guys, I have a weird problem. Since then, when I activated the emby server, my upload rate went up from 10gb to almost 200gb. what could be happening is this upload consumption, without connections to the embyserver, because I use it only on the local network, for my children's use.

@franciscoaurino how do you know it was coming from Emby Server?

Please attach the emby server log from when this happened and we can take a look at what it was doing at the time. Thanks.

It's possible the router is seeing the LAN traffic as external for some reason.

If the server and client devices are both on the same LAN (the same subnet - 192.168.x.y for example) then there is no reason for the traffic to even use the gateway (router).

resolved, it was the internet router that treated the use of the internal network as an external upload. The router was changed and solved.
