I completed the update to 4.1.9 and it did make a small improvement to the write speeds. I'm now getting an average of 15.5MB/s, but it fluctuates between almost 0 and 18.2MB/s when transferring files between 300MB and 2GB.

The drivers made no difference though and they still don't include IPv6 for some reason.

I'm sure the NIC's in my other machines do support IPv6 though.
