ReadyNAS Duo giving very low access speeds on local PC
My parents' ReadyNAS Duo is incredibly slow to access from their PC. I'd give a transfer figure but it's currently showing 0bps! Even displaying folders or right clicking on a file is very slow to res...
It's a broadband router rather than a switch and we both have the same broadband supplier and hence have the same switch (BT Homehub 5). I'd assumed it was running the latest version but it seems I neglected to update theirs when I last updated mine, we're now both running 4.1.14 (which made no difference). However, setting theirs to 100Mbps (full duplex) has now yielded a transfer rate of 3Mps (and rising, I assume because of Windows' averaging method) so I see that as a good result. Do you have any idea why running the NAS at 1Gbps and the PC at 100Mbps led to such a bad result? I'd have hoped the network could have coped with that...
