Wireless Performance to ReadyNAS - at my wits' end...

I too have a Duo v1 and an NV+ v2 with same firmwares as you.
I understand you want to fix the wireless, but you need to look at the wired connections too as 7-13MB/s seems like 100mbs LAN. Although your kit supports gigabit? On a wired connection, I'm getting about 30MB/s, but others are getting much higher - see here.
I just copied 56 pictures, ~195MB, Win7 reports ~6MB/s and it took ~30 seconds. 195/30=6.5, so in fact windows was approx correct! Wireless connection was 802.11n @ 130Mb/s
Same files to my wired desktop took about 6 seconds and Win7 reported ~30MB/s. 195/6=32.5, so again about right for my setup. I know this should also be faster, but I've not spent time troubleshooting yet.
You could try a direct wired connection just to check the NAS performance. Then add each bit of kit back to the network until you find the culprit ;).
