How do i put the Multi-Gig port to 2.5 G ? Or go faster on the WiFi ?
My setup is as follow:
(Netgear RAX200 ports 3&4 'Trunked' together using 802.3ad) <-> Qnap NAS (2x 1G), 4x WD Gold 275MB/s each r/w.
The status in the router under Advanced->Advanced->Ehternet Port Agregation shows 'Active' (green) so i guess this part i did right
(Netgear RAX200 port 5) <-> Qnap T310G1T (10G to TB3 adaptor) <-> XPs15 9500 laptop using CAT8 cable
A) Wired, i was at least expecting to top 200 Megabyte/s (bottleneck being the speed of my link agregation with the nas) but i am still getting 110MBytes / sec just as if i was connected to only 1 link.
B) Wireless I also saw the same speed limitation althrough they said to be something like 4.8Gbs
What am i doing wrong ?
Thanxs, sorry for the cryptic title, i did not know under what to put this

Ok, i feel stoopid now but i answered my own question, this is not Netgear issue, it is more like how QNAP use the link agregation as mentionned here, with many examples, 2 links does not double the speed on single stream download:
