I think it's just the right level of DRM. As far as I know, WeTek doesn't have specific approval from Netflix.

Are you sure that is right Ned? I thought that it was the exact opposite, that in fact Wetek does have specific approval from Netflix.
Hence why some other devices that do have the right level of DRM/Widevine, etc, still don't have HD Netflix (eg: Minix).
Happy to be corrected if I am wrong.

I can't comment on the veracity of this statement (first paragraph, last line) : Netflix
Yeah, I've read that post before. I don't think Ken knows what he's talking about.

Good Afternoon good people,
An update on my part regarding the box and Youtube + General usage.
I have now moved my Wetek Box to the bedroom as this is my secondary box. Reason being the recent purchase of my new Preyda Q-Box at a fraction of the price which was initially bought for use upstairs has now been promoted to the main TV.
My Wetek box was buffering and struggling with Youtube videos, was running generally laggy and crashing more than I would have liked it too. Whereas the Preyda box to my surprise which was working with Half of the internet speeds the Hardwired Core was, was smooth and stable in every way.
Still when upstairs and on the Wi-Fi the Wetek struggles with Youtube, and takes some time to load up. I must add that I have not installed any more applications or videos/media files other than Deezer and Mobdro, everything else is standard and doesn't seem to slow down the Preyda box.
Any suggestions as to why this would be the case I am open too.
