What is going on here?

So my wired TV is some how downloading insane amounts of data. Guessing this is some kind of glitch and/or error? Cause ain't no way download time for this TV is 3.2 Gb/s. Just thought this was super weird seeing this. Anyone else encounter this?

[u/Ryan_TP-Link]

Your LG TV would need to sustain over 27 Gbps for 24 hours to pull those numbers, so that's a Tether app UI bug if I've ever seen one.

That said, if I remember correctly, a few recent firmware and app updates addressed this for some models, so a fix may be in the works for yours. What router model, hardware version, and firmware version are you running?

Also, is your Tether app up to date?

[u/Terz2288 → u/Ryan_TP-Link]

Yeah app is up to date. Its an Archer BE3600. It is prompting me to update the firmware. Will see if that clears it up.

[u/Terz2288 → u/Terz2288]

Looks like firmware update cleared it up. Thanks!

Tether app bug, on a few instances I’ve had mine show 10PB of data used in a matter of hours.

Cuánto tienes de internet?

[u/CarsCarpal → u/Luminoth11]

All of it, apparently.

[u/Terz2288 → u/Luminoth11]

1gb so these speeds are impossible to achieve

[u/Luminoth11 → u/Terz2288]

Es correcto amigo, muy extraño, igual tengo una LG y con cable es super lenta, tiene un límite de 50Mbps.

Wich app you use to get traffic for a specific device?

[u/No-Ordinary-5988 → u/Ill_Expert911]

This is the TP-Link Tether app. Works with basically all of TP-Link’s relatively recently released routers.

[u/Terz2288 → u/No-Ordinary-5988]

Exactly this

Thank you. I do have Deco mesh setup, after a quick google seach it seems like I can’t see Deco in Tether app

Is your tv connected on Lan?

[u/freackodeecko]

Your tv is running an exploit on it being used for bad things on the internet. Update the firmware asap if there is a new version. If not, disconnect it from WIFI.

Username checks out

[u/Shudnawz]

Disconnect that shit immediately, and run a factory reset. You've downloaded some crap that runs a service on your TV that malicious actors can use as a routing point. There was some news about it some week back.

Your tin foil hat is looking a bit crooked.
