I’m having a problem with my WD MyCloud EX2 transfers. Few days ago I’ve decided to upgrade my network a bit, so I could get 1Gb/s transfers across my network. I bought new switches etc, upgraded cables (cat6). Everything appears to be fine. Windows reports to be working on 1Gb/s connection, all “leds” are green (orange -> 100Mb/s, green -> 1Gb/s). But whenever I download something from my WD… all I get is 12-13 MB/s total, which is “perfect” for 100Mbit… but not 1 Gbit
To make everything clear:
-> My PC is set to 1,00 Gbps Full Duplex and says everything is fine,
-> My PC Network Card Led is “green”, which confirms statement above (or at least it should)
-> MY WD is set to work in “1000” speed mode (tried “Automatic” too)
-> MY WD Network Card Led is “green”, which confirms that it should work in 1Gb/s
-> There is just a 0.5m Cat6 cable between WD and PC (I’ve connected them directly to each other, but still the same effect). I’ve also tried few other cables both Cat6 and Cat5e - no difference.)
-> WD Firmware was upated to “1.05.36”
-> My PC Lan driver was updated (it’s an Intel Card on Asus Rampage V Extreme) too…
… tried with a different PC too -> the same…
