Slow Network Transfer Speeds

Featured Replies

Hi all,

 

I'm having issues with my network speeds with over my LAN. I'm currently on the latest beta however this issue was present on all previous builds including stable.

Unraid seems to be capping any  network transfers at 100mbps. I am unable to read or write to my cache drive over LAN any faster that ~10MB/s.

iPerf3 results are reflecting this:

Network is showing correct at eth0: 1000 Mbps, full duplex, mtu 1500.

 

I have tried the following:

-Different CAT6 cables

-Different switch port

-Connecting directly to router

-A second intel NIC card

-Disabling NIC flow control and offload in tips and tweaks plugin

 

My WAN speed has a 100mbps limit which Unraid has no issue maximising so I can't really test if this is affected.

Any other advice or suggestions? I've living with this for awhile now but transferring large files locally is starting to become very tedious.

 

Cheers

Are you sure the problem in on Unraid side, i.e. have you tried with different source computers?

Hello there,

 

me having similar Problems. Also can't reach beyond ~10MB/s

Tried many different settings. No change.

Had FreeNas on the same machine with the full speed of my two disks.

 

Best regards

Ruben

Run a single stream iperf test.

No need for all those options, especially since something is incorrect, just:

iperf3 -s

iperf3 -c IP

iperf Done.

In my current state, I get ~ 30MiB/s via smb using a manjaro client

shouldn't that be more? 

also made an updated diag file

Iperf is showing low performance, but yes should be getting more than 30MB/s, though a first you mentioned 10MB/s? Try with another client if possible, like a WIndows PC.
