Hello.

avg web shield slows down streaming speed to around 21 mbps which causes lag and buffering whenever im trying to watch certain 4k HDR content.

i tried to repair avg but other than that i dont think there are any settings to fix this. 

Is there anything i can do besides turning off web shield?
