What is the difference between ALB and TLB ?
TLB is transmit only, so it only applies to files downloaded from the NAS. ALB works in both directions (and might be more tempermental).
Another option is to get a switch that supports LACP.
I don't think you'll see much gain with the RN300, so if you see problems simply revert back to a single ethernet connection. These modes can be a bit like jumbo frames - sometimes they create more trouble than they are worth.
