Read much slower than Write on ReadyNAS 516.
Running NAS Performance Tester Vers 1.7 on default setting (400MB with 5 loops) from my WIN 7 64bit PC over wireless gives these very slow results. Ave Write in MBps 5.65, 4.22, 5.33 and 4.46. Ave R...
I have been working on this problem since late Feb.
I already have an extender elsewhere in the house and do not want another one cluttering up the airwaves.
We have about 30 networks (on 2.4 GHz) that I can see from my front room, for basically 3 channels (1,6,11).
The 5GHz is also used as well.
The P1200 looks great, but seems to not be available in the UK. Not certain if it sensible to buy US version for UK.
I'm sort of hoping it will be available here soon :)
I have made some progress in that I now have the read slightly faster than the write, which has improved a little.
This was achieved by changing channels on the 5GHz band (not quite so crowded) from 140 to 100.
I checked and double checked and yes the effect is consistent, which is great news.
There is just two more things I would like the answer to:-
1. Does a 'g' connected device on the 2.4GHz channel degrade a 'n' connected device on the 5GHz channel on the
same router, in this case a Netgear WNDR4500?
2. If it does, or can do, how can I monitor which of the 'g' or 'n' is each device using dynamically?
