Slow transfer speed for EA4500

Does anyone think that the transfer speed to send or receive files from a disk external HARD USB connected to the router is slow? Variable speed of 2 MB - 4 MB/s...

The HARD drive is certainly capable of at least 80 MB/s if plugged directly on the PC.

Is it supposed to be this slow or there is a problem somewhere that I'm not aware of?

This sucks seriously... Thought that's supposed to be the top of the product line but so seems less if I had to compare with other routers high-end market that runs better, faster and certainly much cheaper.

1 megabyte is 8 megabits. 1 MB/s is 8 Mbps and 8 Mbps.

The 324 Mbps is only the connection speed, i.e. the frequency of signage. Actual throughput on wireless is much less, at best, about 50% of that. 162 Mbit/s is approximately 20 MB/s.

Yet, I recommend to use a wired computer and check the transfer rate of USB drive.

  • Slow transfer speed for USB 3.0 ports

    I have a USB 3.0 Seagate external hard drive connected directly to one of the USB ports 3.0 at the back of the computer with the cable that came with the drive. Whenever I turn it on, I get the message "this device can perform faster - this USB mass storage device can transfer information faster if you connect it to a USB 3.0 Super speed.

    I tested the speed of the hard drive and transferred on a file of 1.16 GB in 58 seconds of my drive "C".

    I also transferred the same file in the same place, for comparison, on a hard drive 10 years from an old computer which is now in a closed Chamber. This hard drive is also plugged into a USB 3.0 at the back of the computer with a USB 2.0 cable and the files had 57 seconds to cross.

    So that would mean that the Seagate drive does not work at the speed of USB 3.0.

    Can you please advise me as to how I can get the right speed for my USB 3.0 ports?

    DesF,

    You can check for a driver to chipset update for your system.

    Please keep in mind that it is a rotating disc and data transfer speeds do not match the theoretical bus speed. Certainly not the often claimed "ten times faster than USB 2.0! In addition, there a 5900 RPM disk, so a little slower there also.

    A tweak, you can try is to make sure that drive policy properties tab is set for best performance.

  • EA4500 LAN slow transfer speeds

    I have a WD external hard drive connected via USB 3.0 to the Linksys router. I'm trying to transfer a 2 GB file via wifi but taking up to 12 minutes for the transfer. Why slow transfer speeds?

    I'm using 5 GHz Wifi about 3 feet the router. The external drive is a Western Digital MyPassport. The computer I use is a Microsoft Surface Pro 2.

    I've uploaded other files and they take so much time with 2.8 MB/s maximum transfer speeds.

    dadayzee,

    If you disable WMM on the EA4500 you also turn off the N wireless protocol. That will drastically slow down the wireless connection.

  • Is my 2011 macbook pro the neck of the bottle in my LAN slow transfer speed?

    Hello

    I have a macbook pro 2011 and I recently bought a buffalo LS 520 NAS, but when you try to transfer data through my wifi network that speeds are painfully slowly.

    WiFi area speeds as follows:

    Upload: 0,6906480 MB/s

    DOWNLOAD: 6,2196480 Mbit/s

    And here's the transfer speeds for the macbook pro on the NAS directly connected via ethernet

    Upload: 62,689 Mbps

    Download: 796.3651920

    I have a Sky Home Hub router 2013 (144Mbps and 2.4 GHz)

    I think that the might of bottleneck the NIC in my macbook pro, but I am not sure. Even if that were the case, the speeds above seem very slow. I am planning to buy a new router to see if that improves things, but will it be useless if the speed is dictated by my macbook?

    You need a router more...

    Especially if you want to use wifi for transferring files you need in 5 GHz... so I don't spend much time worrying about this.

    Get a new router... you can plug into the hub of the sky... It should be wireless AC so it may be a new extreme Apple or it can be a dozen different brands... all that is readily available and reasonable price... but I highly recommend types AC1900 like Netgear R7000, Asus RT-AC68U or C9 of TP-Link.

    Once you have plugged it in the WAP configuration / Skyhub mode (bridge on the extreme) we can establish if there are still questions what is happening.

    Your 10 x difference in upload and download speed makes no sense. Which affects both wireless and ethernet. The difference in speed of reading and writing on a NAS is double at most.

    But I do not pretend do you a test, ethernet jack directly to the Buffalo and implemented with the static IP as well as your laptop... and then try it... view results... because if these figures are also very strange, then there is a problem with the buffalo...

    It is very important that you her mount smb in El Capitan... the question is something you need to post in the area of the BONE...

  • Vista sometimes slow transfer speed nas

    I tried
    http://social.answers.Microsoft.com/forums/en-us/vistanetworking/thread/c5fe4e3f-6b55-421A-8C83-12e459047709
    and it did not work for me.
     
    I have a desktop computer, laptop computer and nas with the shared windows resources box.  To the nas transfer speeds are what is to be expected and more wireless on the laptop and can support about 2.6 MB/s on a wifi 54 G.  The network is a Netgear router to modem wireless CVG824G with wifi 54G and 100 Mbps cable with cable ports.  The office and the nas are connected to the router directly with cat 5 cables and NICs gigabit in them.
    The office is another story.  When plugged in it will copy files to and from the office to the nas to about 8 MB/s, which is around what I expected a 100 Mbps connection, but after it has copied 1 file it slows down to about 500 ~ 600 KB/s until you restart the nas or the office.
    Have a wired 100Mbps connection with transfer significantly more slow speed that a Wifi 54 G Terminal is very annoying.  Desktop or laptops have vista sp2.  The laptop is 32-bit vs 64-bit office.
    I tried various things on the desktop for this problem, including the execution of the command netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel = disabled with elevated privileges, different mtu sizes. also the following as well
    netsh interface tcp set global rss = off
    SC config lanmanworkstation depend = bowser/mrxsmb10/ins
    sc config mrxsmb20 start = off
    I think to format and re - install will be necessary.

    Well, I have solved my problem.

    For what follows, socket samba on my nas options have been set

    socket options = SO_KEEPALIVE SO_REUSEADDR SO_BROADCAST SO_SNDBUF = 8192 SO_RCVBUF = 8192

    I decided to leave as a default installation of windows I could without formatting.  To reactivate the smb2 I had turned off before, that vista uses by default and descends to smb1 when necessary, I ran

    SC config lanmanworkstation depend = bowser/mrxsmb10/mrxsmb20/ins

    sc config mrxsmb20 = auto start

    then using TCPOptimizer http://www.speedguide.net/downloads.php with run as administrator to enable elevated privileges, just in case, I put the windows default setting and apply, then restarted
    then with a few tips on how to find my optimal MTU size with ping, I discovered that something along the road could only manage a MTU of 1472.  See somewhere like http://www.dslreports.com/faq/5793 for a howto on this.  And before rebooting, I have disabled auto-tuning then in a window of commands with elevation of privilege, I ran the commands
    netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel = disabled
    netsh interface ipv4 set subinterface "Local network connection" mtu = 1472 store = persistent
    then when the computer reboots, he went to max bandwidth.
  • NFS slow transfer speeds

    Hello world

    My scenario:

    FreeNAS with:

    -a CIFS directory

    -a NFS directory

    ESXi 5.1 with:

    -2 guests

    -machines for windows and linux

    I added the NFS directory as a new data store on both hosts and began to migrate computers 2. Migration speed is so slow: 1 MB/s or even much cheaper, with peaks of 40 MB/s (very rare spikes).

    From a machine windows in my group, I tried to copy a file to the CIFS directory; the speed is ok - about 60 MB/s

    Since a Linux in my group, I tried to copy a file to the NFS directory; very slow transfer - 1, 5 MB/s max

    Like all machines that he share the same virtual NETWORK card, it is clearly a problem with the NFS or something like that.

    Any help on this problem is highly appreciated.

    Thank you

    If you use FreeNAS, you can configure iSCSI instead of NFS.

    The Protocol is very fast as NFS.

  • VM network transfer speeds are two times faster than the speed of the physical network

    My stats from the server:

    HP Proliant ML110 G6

    Intel Xeon X 3440 @ 2.53 GHz

    8 GB RAM

    1 Gigabit NIC onboard

    1 PCIx dual port Intel Gigabit NIC

    4 1 to HP 7200 RPM hard drives

    Network:

    Belkin AC1200 F9K1113v4 Gigabit router

    Computer:

    Sony Vaio i5 2440 M, 8 GB, 5400 RPM HDD

    The main objective of the ESXi server should be used as a NAS, but with the additional ability to run Windows or Linux VM casual as a game server.  I currently have Open Media Vault controls 1 to 4 hard drives in a configuration RAID10 of software with a plugin SMB/CIFS to provide access to the shares through the windows.

    Network management is through the card on board.  OMV uses its own port on the Intel network card.

    The problem:

    Transfers of networks (upload) to my Windows 7 PC to NAS OMV are slow (average 40MBps).  Playback speed (downloads) of SIN is about 100 Mbps, which is decent.  I tested the disk write speed using the hdparm since the console command, and they are all on average 110 - 130 Mbps.  Why is my computer so slow transfer speeds?  Is there a setting to ESXi which limits my network connection?

    Some things I noticed:

    If only I start a computer Windows 7 virtual on ESXi VMNetwork, my transfers from the Windows 7 VM to the NAS VM on average 105 MB/s, while the playback speed is around 90MBps.  If I could get my physical network to transfer at these speeds, it would be satisfactory.

    Can someone help me?

    Hello

    I presume that the OMV is the culprit here. See for example this discussion: http://forums.openmediavault.org/index.php/Thread/5507-Extreme-slow-samba-speeds/

  • Too slow for Toshiba 3.0 transfer speed

    Hello

    I just bought a toshiba external hard drive 3.0.
    I use windows 7 genuine.

    My pc specs are pretty ok cos I'm able to run games like crysis 2.
    The problem is my external hard drive has a slow transfer rate. This problem, I started facing along 3 months ago. My hard drive is out of warranty.

    My USB ports are ok and I connect it to the main port.
    Transfer speeds are 10 Mbit/s, and sometimes it falls to Kbps!

    In addition, it does not copy certain files and gives the error 'Cannot read from the source disk' or something like that.
    There is no Virus in there, I activated the write cache. I've defragmented it.
    My OS is fine, and also, I checked it on other operating systems.

    Also, I tried to use "check the drive for errors" with the proper procedure, but it crashes somewhere in the Middle after he treats 500000 sectors or so.

    I got my HDD of my cousin, such that it has used no more PC and with no cover so I have no idea of the model (although if there is any utility to find the model then please let know me).
    In addition, it has worked well during the time. Me and my cousin come only from the India.

    How can I solve this problem?
    Please help me.

  • Satellite A60 - very slow USB transfer speed

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A60 with XP Home and the USB transfer speed is very very low. Is 2.0, but it is not working properly, because it takes about 30 minutes to copy the data from 1 GB on a USB 2.0 drive externally.

    I tried my USB drives on another computer and work quickly and well, so it is probably just a problem of drivers, but can't find them on the web from Toshiba to reinstall them. I heard that it is a common problem after installation of XP Service Pack 2, but I didn't do anything, I use the operating system as it came when I bought the laptop (with XP Home SP2 preinstalled original), I do not change any configuration or install drivers that can affect to the USB controllers and it has always been so slow.

    Could someone help? I tried to reinstall the drivers from Toshiba, but I think that there are not more special just for the USB, what should I update then? I need to improve the transfer speed of USB data for professional purposes, because I can't lose so given at the time of the transfer, please please please help!

    PS: Sorry for my terrible English, but it is there no Toshiba forums on my tongue: P

    Hello

    USB drivers are part of the operating system and you are unable to download the USB drivers separately.
    In my view, it is really not necessary to reinstall the USB drivers because the USB HDD is recognized correctly and it works.

    USB 2.0 transfer speed 480 Mbps supports and if any didn't error message then the USB ports running at full speed.

    For more details, please see this page of Microsoft;

    Last but not least I would recommend to update the XP to the last State. I mean that you need to install all of the available patches and fixes.

  • USB-6218 for PC transfer speed

    Hi guys,.

    I hope to be able to taste 10 channels 10 Hz for about 1 hour, in Labview 8, on a relatively new core dual desktop PC.

    First, I tried an Agilent34970a and concluded that, even if she can continuously scan quickly enough, GPIB in Labview transfer speed was too slow and the PC could not follow.

    So I intend to implement a continuous sweep on a USB-6218 and then read it via USB, time-stamped data in Labview.

    After reading about OR "sample streaming usb", my question is: approximately how long will be the transfer of data via USB? I'll be able to transfer time-stamped 10 channels at 10 Hz continuously in Labview, and still have cycles left processor above for other duties such as writing to the file .VI and update the screen.

    The reason for which I am aiming for USB and no PCI/PXI is because I am concerned about the interference of the computer that affect my signals.  I read only analog voltages in the range of +-10V.

    Thank you for your understanding.

    You can acquire and store at rates of several orders of magnitude higher than 10 Hz. A good way to make sure you can follow has a producer/consumer architecture so that the file writes are made in a separate loop. Backup to the binary is also much faster than backing up to the text. Thus, the design of the program is important as well as the material you use.

  • E4200 1.0.03 slow transfer from usb storage

    Hi, I have a newly formatted (i.e. empty) 2 TB WD my elite book that when I connect it to the usb port on my computer, can transfer a video file of 6 GB to over 100 MB/s depending on the area of detail of win 7.

    However, when I connect to the USB port on the back of the e4200 and try to transfer the same file, it only goes to 8 Mbps max... It seems to happen at the speed of usb 1.

    I have the latest firmware on both the e4200 and the my book 1111 and everything seems to be working for both, except when it is connected to the e4200, this transfer rate.

    Certainly, cisco does not specifically list this drive as being put to the test, but the router recognizes and it shows that usb 2.0, but still the transfer speed is simply too slow.

    8 MB/s is simply not feasible... I could just connect the drive directly to the computer and the part of her that way, but jumping on the e4200 has been one of the reasons why I bought the e4200.

    Anyone know of anyway to get higher through put... or I just hope that this problem is fixed in a later version of the firmware for the e4200.

    THX

    THX SGS, I shall take it that...

    always seems not just that cisco or someone else this usb capability 'storage' without indicating clearly he'll be almost useless for anything regardless of whether bigger that a USB key, that is, they have need to state its got usb 1.1 capability only... maybe its stated somewhere in their fine print but people like me who have day jobs and family do not appreciate having to understand that do everything themselves the hardway...

    I'm mad sorta just enough that I can send this router, since I only had a few weeks... but most likely I'll be too lazy to do that... but now I am mad also sorta as his research like I should not buy one this 2 TB usb drive off Craigslist even for 85 dollars I paid... should get just a disk put it in an envelope and connect to an esata port... Yes that's what I should have dun!

  • Network file transfer speed in windows 7

    I have a working network.

    Files shared in a warehouse are used by other customers. (file size is 1 GB and more)

    Some customers use windows XP and some customers use windows XP.

    My operating system file server is windows server 2008 and I use file sharing.

    The use of files shared in windows XP (software import and editting) has no problem, but in the same use in windows 7, it is very slow.

    File transfer speed is slow and the access to the files in the software takes a long time.

    Example: In windows XP, a 12 GB file is imported into edius pro in a second, but same file in windows 7 takes 65 seconds to import

    What security options are why, or how I can solve it?

    Hello

    Which version of Win 7, you use in client side, he logged in as a domain for win 2008 Server.
    I hope that the system win 7 is not a task force. Home network with one or more computers running Windows 7 can experience slow file transfer speeds, specifically during the transfer of files with other computers running different operating systems,

    Turn off and disable the Compression feature differential to remove Windows 7 can be a solution to slow copying files, file move or delete the file bug.

    • Click the Windows 7 start button, then go to control panel.
    • Click on the link programs.
    • In programs & features section, select features Windows activate or disable the link.
    • Uncheck the remote differential Compression checkbox.
    • Click OK.
    • Wait for the feature to be disabled.
    • Once completed, restart the computer.
