Download Performance Question - Pioneer Pro
I have the Pioneer Pro and typically have solid performance in my home wired LAN - usually 30+MBs. However, when I try to pull files from my NAS through the ReadyNAS remote it is horrible. Currently, I'm trying to pull about 28GB from home (Verizon FiOS 25/25) to work. Work speedtests are strong so the bandwidth is there. Any suggestions on what I can do to increase the speed? This is painful. Thank you.

- mdgm-ntgrNETGEAR Employee RetiredWhat speeds are you getting over Remote?
- evan2NETGEAR ExpertYes, remote is slow, because PC connect your NAS via VPN Netgear provide, it transfer data in public network, download performance is limited by internet speed.
- browningAspirantAt best I'm getting 700KB. This is horrible when trying to transfer anything of size. Any ways around this? thank you.
- mdgm-ntgrNETGEAR Employee RetiredWell assuming optimal conditions 25Mbit upload would get you 2500 KB/s but most likely no more than about 2000 KB/s.
What's your performance like if you say just use FTP with port forwarding not connect through Remote? - browningAspirantI get about 1.5-1.75 MB/S. I'd prefer not to set up everything as FTP though if I can avoid it.
- mdgm-ntgrNETGEAR Employee RetiredCan yo go to https://ip.address.of.nas/REMOTE and click on the Advanced Settings button? Is Encryption or the Firewall enabled? If so try disabling those and see if the performance improves.
- browningAspirantdisabled encryption and still 500 - 700 at best.
- mdgm-ntgrNETGEAR Employee RetiredWas the firewall already disabled?

Yes, firewall was disabled. - browningAspirantIs there any other way to connect directly from a remote location without using ReadyNAS Remote? I have a dyns address so I'm not worried about changing IP addresses in a dynamic environment through FiOS.
