Hi,
thank you for your response.
Yes I was thinking of a bottleneck from R1.
The NAS is connected directly to R2 (1ooMb/s). I will try a diffrent wall outlet maybe it will help.
I now have the problem that the connection R1 over powerline to R2 doesn´t work anymore : )
upstairs i get an wired 169.x.x.x IP address.
But it maybe also is a problem which will fixed with changing the wall outlet.
I´ll try tommorrow.
But another question. When the ports are not dedicated, why two ports ?
I expected some "tagging" to differentiate the traffic of the ports.
Many thanks for your help.
regards
NoC

I doubt the two ports are tagged. Basic, consumer grade Ethernet switches are untagged.
