What firmware are you running?
Is the PC connected using gigabit ethernet?

If the data volume is very old, doing a factory default will speed it up.
Also, if ipv6 is enabled, then I suggest disabling it.

It's been a while since I checked the speed (my RN102 is only used for some testing). But I just took a look. I'm getting 50-60 MB/s with NASTester 1.7, using a 400 MB file size. Disabling strict sync increases the write speed to 70 MB/s, but of course doesn't affect read speeds.

File size definitely matters in these tests - with small files, the speeds are much slower.
