problematic video playback via LAN on iOS ReadyCLOUD app, from RN102
I've never been able yet to get a good performance from my RN102. It's usable as backup / storage and streaming media via DLNA also seems to work well on my BlueRay player, but anything that goes via SMB or AFP to my laptop is terribly slow. I've posted a question about the ReadyCLOUD app on Mac OS not seeing the RN102 unit online elsewhere, but the iOS ReadyCLOUD app does work. I can navigate the file system and display photos. However, video files are problematic. They do eventually load, but the lag makes it practically unusable. The playback also stops quite often and has to be started again by tapping the play symbol. Is there any way to make this unit a bit more zippy? updated: updating the firmware of the Airport failed, so I'm now using the MediaAccess TG789bvn modem / router instead (original setup was to use that as modem only, connected to the Airport by ethernet and use that as wifi router). Wifi speed is now 144 Mbps; I'll report back if this works better. Firmware 6.5.2 OSX 10.12 / iOS 10.02 MacBook Pro, Mid 2012 ReadyNAS 102 is connected to the LAN by ethernet to a via an Apple Airport that also functions as LAN wifi router MediaAccess TG789bvn modem / router + Admin page access via browser is fine. - ReadyCLOUD for mac os always shows RN102 offline + / - ReadyCLOUD for iOS too slow for video playback + / - CIFS / SMB and AFP both work when connecting via the Finder, though often too slow to be useful (navigating / listing directories takes very very very long)Solved3.8KViews0likes5Comments
