Determining Bottleneck on Remote Stream

[vmcosco 24]

I seem to get a fair amount of buffering when I am streaming remotely to my iPad.  I do not have any issues when I am at home and streaming to my Fire TV.

 

I use my iPhone as a 4G hotspot so I am not relying on poor coffee shop WiFi.  I checked the speed and it comes it at 100Mbps Down so I assume I am good there.  I have 7Mbps Up on my home connection  and I make sure all other traffic is "paused".  I am running nginx for reverse proxy and SSL to connect remotely.  

 

Is there a way to tell where the bottleneck is occurring?  On the iPad app? Upload from home server? Server processor? Nginx?

 

Thanks

What do you have the client bitrate/quality set to?  With only 7Mb up at the source, I probably wouldn't try to go above about 2Mb on the client end.

I have it set to auto.  I will try to drop it down the next time I am streaming.  Thanks.  That should have been blatantly obvious.

If your proxy is setup wrong, it will act as if you are a local connection.
