Great througput on Mac Side; Nonexistent throughput on Win7

As far as I can tell I activated protocols that work with mac and pc on my ReadyNAS Ultra+. With mac, the throughput is as expected (fast via gigabit-thunderbolt adapter). However, with a win7 machine that also has gigabit and cat6 cables I can't get any reliable connection.

Does anyone know what might be causing this massively different experience between mac and PC? All cables are tested cat6 and they are all on the same subnet.

    Do you have jumbo frames enabled on the NAS? If so, try turning them off as a test.
