Which version are you using?

Windows 10 Professional 64 Bit. Version 6.9.3 of Netgear firmware. I'm not certain about the measured transfer speeds, but it has decreased from probably 100 MB/s to KB/s. I just noticed some other weird behavior.
1. Transfers may start quickly but then change to a crawl.
2. The last two albums I dragged into my Music folder on the NAS ended up with two copies of every file. I really can't explain this.
3. If I'm on my ReadyCloud page and click on the "Manage" tab and then click on the "admin page" link, I get the following message: "The Admin page can only be accessed when you are in the same network (LAN) as your device." This makes no sense. The computer I use to access my ReadyCloud page is on the same home network and same IP address ranges as the NAS, namely 192.168.0.X.

Are you using SMB for the file transfers?
Have you tried e.g. disabling "Strict Sync" for the SMB settings for the share?

I've pretty much left settings on default. When I look at the "Music" folder it lists SMB, AFP and DLNA. Strict Syinc is checked for SMB. I can certainly disable it, but assume the defaults ought to work pretty well for a simple home network. Or is this wrong?

It's worth a try. If it doesn't help you can always change the setting back. It helped the user in this thread
