Wireguard remote SMB file transfers extremely slow


Recommended Posts

Hi all, fairly new to Unraid. I've been playing with wireguard to get remote access to my shares from a Windows 10 PC, as I have data on a remote machine that I want to upload to my server.

 

I'm connected via Remote Tunnelled Access, the server has been mapped as a drive in my windows explorer, so I can see the shares I want to see and upload/download files.

 

The issue I'm having is that despite having regular upload/download speeds of around 150/2Mbps as shown by Ookla speedtest, when I try to download a file from the server my maximum speed is 2Mbps, and my maximum upload speed is 355Kbps. The download speed is something I can cope with, but the upload speed is a real problem.

 

Do you kind folks have any suggestions as to how I could solve this slowness?

Keep in mind that the upload/download speed on both ends matter.

 

Downloading from home to a remote locations uses your home upload speed and the remote download speed. Whichever is slower is the bottleneck.
