I don't use Plex, what kind of bandwidth does it need? If he has good download you could set up a small cloud machine to proxy the traffic... maybe... I mean I don't know anything about Plex but in theory this could work

I decent 1080p video file can be around 3 Mbps. I thought my setup would be fine since I pay for 30 Mbps upload speeds, but it seems I don’t actually achieve that outside of my local area. I would fear that a cloud machine would suffer the same rate limit
