Speeding up data transfer?
My ON NETWORKS PL200-199UKS 200 Mbps Powerline (connected a D-Link DSL-3680 router) is feeding a tp-link tl-sg1008d gigabit Ethernet switch, which is hooked up to my Lenovo i7 3770 3.4ghz 16gb PC & NV...
I assumed that the PC was isolated in its room so I had : NAS => switch/router => powerline A => powerline B (in the other room) => Lenovo
But looks like I read a little quickly, re-reading the first post, it seems you are right and that the PC-NAS circuit only uses the gigabit switch.
10Mbytes/s is indeed pretty close to the 12Mbytes/s limit of the 100mbit/s connection. I think you are asking for a cable check here ;)
@clingon, do you use category 5E or better cables ? old cables using cat5 (not 5E) are not compatible with gigabit speeds. Can you test with another cable ?
