Hello pinecone70,
Welcome to the community!
Where is this ReadyNAS 214 connected directly? To a switch or a router? Also. the computer you use to access the files stored to the NAS volume, is that connecting wireless? Can you try on a computer that is connected via LAN cable?
If the NAS is connected to a switch and the computer is connected wireless, connect the computer to the same switch where the NAS using a LAN cable, disable the wireless then test again the performance. If you get the same problem, connect the NAS straight to the router as well as the computer.

Hi!
My computer is connected via LAN cable to a Netgear switch, which is also connected via LAN cable to the ReadyNAS.
