Since I updated both my ATV4K and ATVHD I have a constant network activity from my ATVs. This was not something I had before.

The amount of data is not large, but it annoys me and I can’t figure out what it is.

Both units are connected through ethernet. While I previously had the switch lights flicker now and then with periods of no activity. Now I have constant activity on both units. If I disconnect the ATVs the network activity stops (can be observed on the switches).

Turning on and off analytics does nothing.

Now this not a that big issue but it irritates me to have this constant network activity. Has anyone noticed this and figured out what it is?
 
I think my ATVs have become sentient, the network activity is between the devices. Disconnecting one from the network stops the activity.


But why is the question.
