Hi Bennor,
No I read your post, hard wired desktop and lap top and no wifi specs in the above posts.
I am only interested in LAN over wifi, better not to even write anything re hardwired, as I am easily confused
In your read write to the your my cloud 2 TB test using a laptop the speeds are still rather slow for a LAN.
Also I have re read, it kind of says you added something to your laptop ?
“Windows 10 Laptop PC: USB 2.0 AC1200 WiFi network adapter”
Is this the case an adapter card etc to USB ? just asking as I not be doing anything like this.
Yes everything you say mention re router cables etc I fully understand this.
My areas I wish to increase in knowledge are how fast is it possible to get the LAN over wifi.
So thank you as it appears 28 megs both ways on your laptop, using maybe a special card something in a USB 2 port.?
Is it normal to have such a slow read write in LAN as I had read in areas of 1 Gigs a second wired and then thought 100 megs over LAN using wifi (thats no cables ) would be easy obtained.
When using a WD my cloud 2TB
However your just getting a tiny low speeds around 28 megs which is actual slower than old tech fire wire.
So if I was to go out buy the fastest possible router this could be in easy 600 dollars and plug this into the WD my cloud.
I probably maybe using a tablet at best reach 28 megs read write do you think ?
Aim was to achieve min LAN on wifi 100 megs read write or more with the WD my cloud 2TB.
ps thank you for your efforts and advise so far.
it helps
