Readynas 212 early 100mbps now 11mbps ??
Hello I am Rik, nice to join this community.
My setup:
Media PC Windows 10 (i5)
Apple Airport (mod 2016)
Ziggo internet 120mb
Laptop vaio wireless 5g
Readynas 212
I have 1 year the Readynas 212 and works well, but......
Till 1 month ago the down/upload preformance between the windows 10 pc connected with lan, 100mbps verry good !!
but now it is at the most 11mbps ?? With the same hardware, no changes. Besides the major update from windows, maybe that is why this is te problem ?
The connection from pc to internet wil work fine with 90mbps
If i down/upload from my wireless laptop with the readynas it wil 28mbps, also good.
So the connections and cables are good.
Do you know what is the problem ??
Greets Rik
Problem Solved.
I used several ol utp cabels.
Replaced them all for Cad6 and its working perfect :-)

11 MB/s is the typical speed for fast ethernet (100 mbit wire speed). Check the wired links on the path between the NAS and the PC, and see if one of them has negotiated fast ethernet for some reason.
On the NAS (and most gigabit devices) a green led next to the NIC connector means gigabit, and amber means fast ethernet. The UIs usually also will give you the link speed as part of the connection status.

Hello StephenB,
thank you for your answer.
I have 2 links, one Music Folder and one Video Folder. Just remove them and new network link. But it is the same slow connection.
The readynas ethernet connection (eth0) is set on 1Gbps.
Maybe you can explain how i can check the negotiated fast ethernet.

Actually you've already confirmed that link out of the readynas is 1 gbps. You just to follow that for the rest of the path. As I said, if there are leds next to the ethernet connector in a device, generally they will be green if you are running gigabit, and yellow if you are running fast ethernet. The UIs (for devices that have them) will also tell you,
If the PC also has wifi, make sure you have wifi turned off. Windows might be using the wifi connection instead of the wired one.
