I am trying to disable bonding so I can setup two separate Ethernet networks but every time I try it crashes. Then I have to delete the network config file and start over. Does anyone know how to configure two separate ethernet networks? One for internet access and one for local network?

The extender is wireless so I don't think it would help to have it connected to switch anyway. Thanks for all of your help.

So I have a wifi extender that has an Ethernet port. This is how I get internet access to my unraid server, because unraid can't use wifi. I thought I would be able to use the second Ethernet port on the mobo to connect to my switch and use that LAN connection to transfer data. I know its better to have the unraid server connected directly into the router but they are on different floors and I can't run an Ethernet cable between them. Is there any way I can make this work?

I just tried using unraid without the LAN cable connected and it didn't make a difference. So all this time it was transferring slowly because it is sending data wirelessly through my router, to my access point and then to the unraid pc. So does anyone know how I can use one Ethernet port for internet access and one Ethernet port for a LAN connection? Is this even possible?

I have internet connected through an access point. The router is too far away to have a wired connection. That is why I wanted to use two ethernet ports. Is it possible to do it this way?

I only have two cables because I use one for internet access and one for LAN connection. I don't know know else to do it.

I use one of the Ethernet ports on the mobo to access the internet through my modem/router and the other one to connect to LAN. Would port bonding be causing the slow transfer speeds? Maybe I am sending the data through the router instead of through the LAN.

Thank you for the reply. I noticed it only had a 100 mb/s connection and a restart seems to have fixed it. Its now saying 2500 mbps, and 1000 mbps. I think the 1000 mbps is the connection to the internet and the 2500 mbps is to the LAN.

I just set up my unraid server and I am transferring files from a windows 10 pc onto it but I am only getting about 20 mb/s speeds. Usually it will slow down to about 9 or 10 mb/s after about 5 minutes. Is this normal? I have tried with and without parity calculations, and an ssd cache didn't make any difference. I have my windows pc and my unraid server connected to a 2.5gigabit switch. Both have 2.5 gbe ports on the motherboard. Transferring video files from win 10 pc to win 10 pc I get 150 mb/s on the same network switch. I ran iperf3 and it said that I have bitrate between 75 and 90 mbits/sec. I don't know what to do about this. I have been googling and watching how to vids all day and I am beyond frustrated. This just seems terribly slow to me. Maybe its my network? Should I try a different cable? I connected a laptop to the ehternet cable for the server and I was able to transfer a video file at about 90 mb/s. My unraid server is running on an ASUS mobo, Intel 11600k, IGPU, 32 gigs RAM, 3 8tb Seagate NAS HDD, samsung 850 evo 1tb cache drive. Any help or advice is appreciated. tower-diagnostics-20211223-2203.zip
