NAS not on LAN in ReadyCloud
I've just noticed on my PC which is on the same LAN as 'Home-NAS' and 'Dillon-NAS'; it displays that 'Dillon-NAS' is connected via VPN.
'Dillon-NAS' is a RN314 with one ethernet cable going directly to my router and another to a network switch; 'Home-NAS' is a RN102 and is plugged into the network switch and PC is directly to router.
I've tried switching all ethernet cables so all are plugged into my router or all into the network switch with no change.
I guess what I'm trying to ask is if this would cause backups or transfers to be restricted to my internet speed and not my LAN speed?
Thanks!

- mdgm-ntgrNETGEAR Employee RetiredAre both running 6.2.0?
VPN would suggest it is unable to establish a LAN connection so transfers will be limited by your internet speed. - Both are on 6.2.0
Yeah, that's annoying then. Any suggestions?
Thank you. - I figured it out, it was because UPnP was disabled on the RN314!
As ReadyCloud needs UPnP switched on to deliver LAN performance.
