February 14, 20251 yr I have migrated to a newly built system with faster networking than my old Synology-based file server. I am however running in to issues with SMB share on the new UNRAID system (I'll refer to it as the host system from now on). My host system has three 2.5 gigabit network interfaces, all with static IP addresses assigned to them in the router and all accessible separately. I am still able to access my old server on my Window's client via SMB Multi Channel and thus getting higher throughput than a single nic. I am also able to see it connected when using the following command in PowerShell: Get-SmbMultichannelConnection Which results in the system displaying just the old Synology server, but not my new UNRAID host system, as shares with multi-channel support. I have disconnected and reconnected multiple times and am still unable to have any device on my network acknowledge more than one interface for this host system at a time for throughput. All IP addresses are ping-able from the client system. Curious if anyone else has run in to this and what I can do to get my throughput as high as I can. Most guides out there say it'll just work if it can, but mine is failing me. Any ideas? Edited February 14, 20251 yr by Gyakusetsu
