slow lan speed
Posted: Thu Feb 16, 2017 4:10 pm
Hi all, I'm a noob in the forum but not with the program; I need some help please.
I just set up a new system and, as I'm using the old house powerlines with a pair of TP-LINK 4020, I have some expected drop of quality - out of the theoretical maximum 12,5 MB/s I rarely reach a transfer rate of 8 MB/s - but it's stable between 6-7. Now, I created a new job to back up a folder of images over the LAN and it never reaches more than 2-3 MB/s. The network utilisation is less than 30%, even drops down at 3%, and the job takes ages. If I stop the job and test the network speed, all is working normally, it's just the job that doesn't. I've tried changing the LAN and NIC setting, all to no avail, I 've also unticked "smart" in advanced mode, nada. So, any ideas how I can make this work?
Thanks in advance
EDIT: Just thought to add that copying the same content from/to the same folders in Explorer reaches easily the 7 MB/s limit. It's just inside Fbackup that the slow LAN happens.
EDIT2: ...And it's a mirror of mostly jpg and raw orf files, 500kb to 80mb.
EDIT3: ...And finally, I hope, both systems w764, no firewalls, CPU and RAM more than enough; the backup is on a fixed drive.
