Normally you should expect about 10 MB/s on fast ethernet.
Are you seeing any network errors on network->interfaces (click on ""show errors")? Also you might want to check the SMART+ stats under health.
You can try a direct connect test to rule out your network. IF the NAS is using dhcp, if you directly connect it to your PC it's IP address will fail over to 192.168.168.168. So you'd set the PC IP address to something compatible (192.168.168.167 for instance, with subnet 255.255.255.0). No need for a crossover cable, the NAS autodetects.
