    Jellyfin clients cannot and do not communicate directly with the storage. Everything is served through the jellyfin server and the jellyfin server + OS handles all the behind the scences data movement before eventually sending to the client. Even direct play. As long as the throughput is sufficient, the number of hops shouldn't matter.

    When accessing over mobile, is it actually direct playing or is it transcoding? What is the bit rate of the video? How fast is your home Internet upload speed?
