Not sure what happened on the write test - however you certainly don't need the leaf adapter to access the NAS on your home network.
The leaf adapter is virtual, and connects to the Ready Remote server (it's a VPN, not a physical network connection). Changing the speed won't make any difference, it's there only because the field exists and needs to be filled with something. The adapter is routing your data through the internet to netgear servers (and back), so you are limited by your internet uplink speed (and the netgear servers). The leaf adapter is not supposed to be used on the local LAN, so something is amiss.
If you are logged into readycloud, perhaps try logging out and retesting.
One option is just to uninstall remote (or readycloud). If you have no immediate use for readycloud on that PC, I suggest doing that.
You can also manually disable the adapter - readycloud will automatically enable it when you log in, but it won't disable it when you log out.
