Router conected to PLC with cat6 wire.. I think the problem is inside synology ds Is it right?.. It should be 1Gbps, right?.. While PowerLine connectors are good, they can get interfernce from lots of sources. To be honest, if your PC is only 3 meters from your router, I would use either a network cable or wifi instead of a powerline unit — I only ever use those as a last resort. Found this page today and it has completely resolved my slow transfer speed issue.
Absolutely brilliant — thank you so much! I recently bought a DS to backup my projects that are really important to me. However, currently its only throttling around kbps of download, and 20kbps of upload. After your suggestion its still the same. In the first 5 minutes or so it was around 20mbps, but then it started to drop really fast.
At this current pace it will take me Is there any way of fixing this issue before sending it back? Backing my data via Cloud Station which is connected via IP Hi Joey, Are these projects website projects by any chance?
Thank you for your reply. The projects are not for websites but for music stuff, so still could hit the administrative overhead of small files probably.
I still have slow speeds but ordered a ethernet adapter today. Hopefully that will make a difference. Thanks for your tips! I have been unable to use it for backup due to horrible performance.
In two weeks, 1 TB of my laptop data is still not fully transferred. When I use a USB3 disk the full backup is only a couple hours. On my old laptop, everything else operating went to a crawl, and the backup never finished after weeks!!! I tried all the settings suggested above, without success. How does anyone get the Synology backup to work?
My previous Windows Home Server worked way better, but no longer supported, unfortunately. A bottle neck that small is definately not going to be processor related, something else is going on. Dude, thank you so much! I finally resolved to fixing this, and came across your post. BOB, mate…. I had problems in playing 4k hdr movies, especially the ones with very high bitrate….
I just wanted to tell you Huge thanks and hug form me! Firstly, thank the lord for this thread… I did a lot of searching for this topic. Great work, Bob — thank you.
I tried all of these settings, with no luck — until I had a powercut due to a storm yesterday. Once the power came back on… perfect — went from around 4Mbps to 85Mbps. So, last thing to try — to protect my sanity was to flick off the power to my powerline.
What the hell is going on with my setup? Hey David, This is going to sound a little odd but I would go around and unplug anything in the vicinity of powerline adapters that is electronic not necessarily electrical, simply electrical devices are fine. I say this from experience.
Years ago I was staying at a friends house and connecting to wifi in this guest house which was fed from a powerline adapter. After a few days I realised it was whenever I plugged in my second laptop charger a cheap copy in to a nearby socket.
This other in of the powerline plug is connected to the router. The best upload speed i get is kps I have made the changes in your opening post, but this has made no difference to my speed. PC is connected to the same switch as the NAS. Apparently that speed is about right for my 30mb broadband.
So it would take over a month to upload gb strangely enough if i drag and drop a backup file from my desktop, it will take just over two hours….. If you are getting 30 download, I would expect at least 10Mbps upload which is 1.
Hope this helps Bob P. Just done a speedtest and it reports15Mbps down and 1. This is using a PC connected to an unmanaged switch gigabit then into a powerline gigabit wifi turned off which is picked up by another powerline straight into a Synology router. My other choice is to create Hyper Backups to 2nd NAS and have that Chugging away uploading said back-ups to synology.
Download the Backup file to the PC…. So i might have to create smaller job, maybe one for each year. Living in the stick is wonderful, but you pay a price with the internet limitations. JPGs your kind of stuck. No quite seperately, we have configured her NAS on her home network to synchronise ALL of her photos to it, which works ok because the download speed is better and the photos are uploaded when she is out and about on faster connections generally.
This means if she needs quick access to her old photos when at home, she does so via the NAS. Not sure if that would work for you but its good for her. Thanks to your article I solved another problem: Synology Drive Backup was stuck, it seemed to loop.
All Best Henrik. I am attempting copy of important files from my Windows 10 laptop to the NAS. It is bouncing all around. All cabling is CAT6. I was excited to find the settings here and I changed accordingly, but see no difference in speed. I abandoned one attempt yesterday that was still going at 20 hours. It was a 5. If I were you, try and find a single large file say 1GB upwards and copy that and see what speed you get.
That gives you the true network through put. Lots of smaller files each have an admin overhead small at the source, larger at the destination and it can have a big impact. When I copy websites consisting of — for example — 30, tiny files amounting to only Mb, it takes ages compared to a single file 40 times bigger. Thanks, I will try as soon as the current copy operation which has been running overnight is done. Hi Bob, I tried the steps suggested I even tried other tips on the thread.
And I cant just manage to improve or change transfer speed. It seems to me that I am doing everything right and connected direcrly no router or switch to the NAS but still cannot get the results I am hoping.
What sort of data are you trasferring? Have you tried transferring a single large file for example 4GB and seeing what speeds you get versus a bunch of smaller files?
I am only testing to transfer single files sized aprox 10 gb To 20 gb I tried now transfer single 4gb file and still get same results The transfer rate isnt even stable or fluctuating slightly. I am trying to transfer single files sized 10gb to 15gb i tried now to teansfer single 4 gb and the same problem i am getting.
Hey Fahad, If you have a direct cable and a large file is maxing out at 27MBps Bytes per sec which is equal to Mbps bits per sec then something is definately wrong. If I were you my next to experiments would be: 1 Try reading a file from the NAS — do you get the same speed reading from it as writing to it?
Third i tried USB 3. Just to check, is the NAS brand new? And now i tried to download from the USB to the laptop and i get pretty similar results to what i get usally barely above At the moment everything is pointing towards a problem with NAS networking.
Ok i will try first solution for now But for the second i have no clue what is ftp server and what role it plays or how to do that as i am not an expert can you please direct me to a link with whole description.
One last thing if the problem lies with the transfer protocol what doeas that mean? Does that mean that i have a defective unit? Problems with protcol can likely be fixed as its most likely configuration somewhere. Hi Bob I thought about doing iperf3 test throug my android phone connected to my wifi and i got this Connecting to host Just to check — when you are connecting your laptop via a cable, have you disconnected from the wifi? I give up i managed to do last 2 options and no improvement what so ever FTP was even slower!!
If you get a fix, let us know! File 1,5 GB avi movie. Thank you for all of the advice in this chain, going back quite a while! Hopefully you can offer some suggestions. I run my business and personal devices from home. I get bad internet speeds, but mbps was fine to do the full backup.
I have been in contact with Apple and done all of their checks and hard reboot recommendations to no avail. I have plugged the laptops direct into the router to check the ethernet cables with a short ethernet cable from the router to the NAS.
I just seem to have run out of options for where the problem could be. Hope you might be able to assist. See article here about the different protocols on Apple devices. Thanks Bob — no joy yet but I will keep on looking.
Thanks for your reply — much appreciated! I have tried the settings mentioned here because of low copy speed. I decided to change the disk with the log messages, although the system said healthy, and smart test also was fine. Problem solved! Still terribly slow, but you quadrupled my speed. So thanks for that! That explains the poor performance, and may explain some of your problems noted above. OK I have now solved the issue.
I edited the Cloud Station link Edit Connection from the drop-down menu. I am now getting 75Mbps and traffic is staying within my LAN. The interesting side-effect is that this fixed ALL connections to my Synology box — not just the one I edited! I have two separate shares managed separately.
That would explain the speeds because as you correctly diagnosed, everything is proxying via Synology and passing through your firewall twice! DS connected via ethernet to the router, W10 computer connected via WiFi to the network.
I set SMB3 for maximum speed, but still cannot find a solution. What could it be? Hi Alessandro, What tool did you use for your speed test? I have done all the above and it not solved my problem. Then i have disabled the firewall on Synology Nas and it worked!!!!
Is that what I will get? Will adding another disk improve the speed? NAS connected to my router and accessing my router wireless. So how bad is my speed in comparison to what should be expected? I have highend networking kit with gigabit connectivity straight to my Synology, running Raid 1 mirrored and I get a maximum of 80MBps write speed if that helps. I like all of the people above found this page after trying to find a solution to their slow network speeds.
I ran the extended S. I have been scouring the internet trying to find a solution, and have now tried all the solutions recommended on this page.
My issue is not isolated to a single computer nor is it isolated to SMB. To rule out a problem with HDD read, I did a local file copy of about 1. Writing back from the USB3 drive produced similar results.
Okay, so yes, everything is hardwired through Gigabit router. It seems only reading is the issue… so maybe there is something to bad drives? I tried what you suggested. I should also add, this NAS has two Samsung Evo Cache drives, so that could be helping with the increased write speed. Pinging Hey Steve, Hmm — tricky, when you first described the issue I wondered if there might be a problem with the RAID controller or setup and this makes me think that might still be the case.
Personally I prefer mirroring on RAID in these sorts of units, slightly less storage but easier to diagnose issues. It has been about 3 or 4 days. After the IDNF error, there was no other indication that the parity was being rebuilt. Plus I generally have uneven drive numbers, making mirroring less practical. So I have purchased 3 new 10TB Ironwolf drives to replace them all which should arrive this week.
I do have a 5 port switch on the network, but neither of these are utilising it. The current drives are pretty old, and also only rpm, where the new Ironwolf ones I ordered are So hoping that adds some improvement as well… but we shall see. Hey Steve, Yeah I think replacing the drives is a good shout something due anyway so may as well!
Yep that rebuild is going to take a while! Connecting directly to the NAS had a very minor effect. Then back from the router, back under the house and back to the PC. The NAS is on a 1m cable directly to the router. There is roughly 8m 25 feet of cable between my router and PC.
Do you think that upgrading this cable to something more insulated could see more speed improvements? Apologies for the delay on responding — I missed this one! Upgrading the cable is unlikely to make a difference unless the cable is damanged, prone to interference proximity to radio equipment or high power cables or moisture ingress.
Was the speed test above based on one large file or lots of small ones as the admin overhead of small ones can be a factor. Cable runs under the house. That iperf test does a large number of small files. Hi Steve, Interesting — so we get a better idea from this of the top-end cap from the larger files. I suspect the Mbps cap might be down to the router a direct connect will test that , the Mbps speed is something else going on.
Will give that a try. Hi Bob, so the router was the source of the issue. Hey Steve, Awesome buddy — really pleased you got it sorted!! Cheers Bob. AFB is an outdated and deprecated protocol. I turned it off on my DSj, kill the Moments app on my phone, reinstalled Moments, and viola! Super fast updates and transfers! Access your DSM web ui Synology box by whatever means.
There is a checkbox there under Memory Compression: Enable Memory Compression to improve system responsiveness. Problem solved. I have read numerous articles about various fixes and none of them worked. General note — I struggled for some time with extremely slow connectivity whilst copying files to my NAS. Solution quite simple for Windows. Make sure you mapped your drives for e. Very fast! Thanks for posting Charles! How were you transferring files before you mapped your drives?
Thank You very much mate. Its working for me. There was limit set !!!! I have never set this for sure and couldnt figure out what was going on with the speed from NAS.
And entire GUI became more robust too suddenly joke :. Hope that helps. I'm utterly bemused, and annoyed. Your email address will not be published.

If your NAS is operating on a private home network, you may want to disable transport encryption mode use at your own risk and enable opportunistic locking: For me on my Synology DSj , this took my file transfers from around 5MBps to around 80MBps!
