Read much slower than Write on ReadyNAS 516.

Thanks for your suggestions and replies (again)

Your old router will not have more signal strength than the new one. The maximum transmit power is regulated by country (and in your case is 100 mw). The old router might have less power, but it will not have more.

To be clear I was not suggesting replace Router with Router, but the WNDA3100v2 access point with a Router switched to be an AP only. If AP transmitted power is less than 100mw this might be an option.

Re the use of powerlines, I considered these years ago, but I have many socket extensions and multiple fuse boxes (5) in the house. I also have at least 5 suppression extension sockets for IT equipment.
I am led to believe that all of these MAY 'dilute' and/or 'interfere' with any signal on the mains.
So I currently think it is not a goer.

FWIW, as far as the NAS is concerned the writes take longer (since the raid parity blocks need to be rewritten).

Are there raid parity blocks on RAID10 as I thought it was mirrored with both mirrors being written in parallel?
