OS 6.4.1 slow ... to the point of unusable
We just upgraded an RN102 to 6.4.1, which intially seemed to fix some backup issues we'd been working around, however we've just downgraded to 6.4.0 after seeing 6.4.1 being too slow to be usable (th...
To get the fix for the anti-virus issue you can update to ReadyNASOS 6.5.0-T338 (Beta 2) (or later). Alternatively if you prefer you can stay on 6.4.2 for now and install the hot-fix (which is now available).
Thanks for your patience.
I'm getting exact same issue. Upgraded yesterday and local network file speed has gone to the dogs. Long time-out errors on accessing any SMB enabled shares from Windows 10 clients. Essentially unworkable. Tried rebooting etc to no avail. Web based access via admin console in browswer seems to be at regular speeds but the rest is broken.
Is there any way we can roll back to previous firmware?
Yes DBO, I had to learn how to do this yesterday to recover (downgrading 6.4.1 to 6.4.0). Follow this - its pretty easy luckily ...

It worked!! With 6.4.0 everything is fine again.
Thanks a lot.
Thank you StephenB for giving us a direct link to the 6.4.0 download, because yesterday the search for a downloadable firmware version timed out.
- Got 6.4.0 (x86) and tried uploading via the admin page to the NAS .. but kept getting "Unrecognized Server Error". (under Firefox 42.0)
- Switched admin onto MS Edge and it worked from there.
Can also confirm that reverting back to 6.4.0 has resolved the speed issues. Thank goodness we can get back to doing some work today.
Lets hope there's a fix in the works soon.
- I have just downgraded from 6.4.1 to 6.4.0 and the speed issue is gone. I will just wait for the next upgrade after 6.4.1.
