ReadyNAS 102 access from Mac slow
I have a ReadyNAS 102 that is connected to my Cisco gigabit network switch using CAT6 cable. I can access the shares rather quickly from any one of several PC machines on the same switch, but am finding that accessing it with my new iMac using OS Sierra is a nightmare. It will load the first couple of levels in the network file structure from my iMac with only a little hangtime, but when I try to access the folders that actually have my files in them it takes over an hour to load the file names in that folder. I have tried both SMB and AFP protocols to access and both seem to have the same delay. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

There are some changes we can make which can help with SMB. I've sent you a PM.

Re: ReadyNAS 102 access from Mac slow
I'm having the same problem with our Netgear ReadyNas 314, using a mac with Sierra OS 10.12.4. Should I create a new post or can you PM me also?
Thanks so much,
Kristen

Re: ReadyNAS 102 access from Mac slow
herald it looks like you ran into the recent ReadyCLOUD issue. Did you have any data in your ReadyCLOUD home folder share?

No. That was just me trying to figure out how to make the NAS work with my Mac. Thought maybe a different file would help.

Re: ReadyNAS 102 access from Mac slow
We're planning to have a GUI option to enable these changes in a future release.

Hello,
I have the same problem here, remotely from PC (with ReadyNAS Remote) and iphone/ipad (with RN Remote), everything works fast, from MAC, it is extremely slow.
Thank you in Advance

Netgear had to log in to my system and make some changes that users don't have access to.

Re: ReadyNAS 102 access from Mac slow
I haven't received a response for my inquiry yet. Somewhere in this thread there was a hint that the setting would be part of a future firmware update. I've received 2 recently but no setting.

Re: ReadyNAS 102 access from Mac slow
Firmware 6.7.5
I've been fighting this issue and looking for a solution forever. I was almost ready to throw this thing out until I saw this post. Can you help? Transfer speeds are abysmal at best and it takes forever just to load file names in Finder, never had this problem with PC, just the iMac.
Thanks!

Re: ReadyNAS 102 access from Mac slow
One option is to try 6.8.0-RC1 (beta). It does have some OSX optimizations.
I'm running the beta firmware myself, but don't have any OSX systems.

Re: ReadyNAS 102 access from Mac slow
Some have seen that turning SMB signing off will improve performance. For instance, https://community.netgear.com/t5/Using-your-ReadyNAS/Slow-ReadyNAS-RN104/m-p/1342850/highlight/true#...
Turning off the packet authentication does impact security (as I noted), but personally I'd have no problem doing that on a home network.
