Transfer speed with ReadyNas 212
Hi all,
my setup is:
Router: Netgear D6200 (AC 1200 wifi router)
WiFi Adapter: Netgear A6210 (AC 1200 adapter)
ReadyNAS 212 with 2x 4TB WD RED
Cables: 5E CAT cables
The adapter is just 4/5 meters from the router with just a couch between the two of them.
The nominal speed that the Adapter seen from the adapter interface is 867 Mb/s so clearly everything I have is Gb and it seems to works as such.
The maximum transfer speed I can reach (from NAS to PC with SSD drive) is 27 MB/s with 1GB files, while with smaller files it's around 15 MB/s.
Is this normal? Of course I don't expect the same speed of a wired connection (which was around 80/100 MB/s), but I was expecting something around 40/50 MB/s.
Any insight?
Thank you very much!
Luca

Can you measure the speed using a wired ethernet client?
- What do you mean? When wired the speed is around 100 MB/s for big files.

If you are getting 100 MB/sec from the NAS, then your issue is really with WiFi. You could repost in the home networking forum. But I think that ~200 mbits per second (27 MB/s) is about right for the D6200. It's consistent with some D6200 router reviews I've seen.
