Hi,

 

I am having an odd issue with the speed of accessing my NAS (TrueNAS) on the LAN via a Macbook WiFi Client (M1 Pro running Sonoma)

 

I've attached a badly drawn picture of the key components.

 

Any ideas?

 

Speeds in Megabits/Sec:

 

Macbook, PC, NAS and Deco x68 node are all in the same room

 

PC <-> NAS (iperf3) = 9+Gb/s

PC <-> NAS (SMB) = 4+Gb/s (limited by drives in NAS)

PC <-> Internet = ~600-650 Mb/s

 

MacBook (Wifi) <-> NAS (iperf 3) = 650 Mb/s

MacBook (Wifi) <-> Internet = ~600-650 Mb/s

MacBook (Wifi) <-> NAS (SMB) = 30 Mb/s

MacBook (Wifi) <-> NAS (http) = 30 Mb/s

 

 

Macbook (2.5Gb/s /Lan plugged into Microtik to test) <-> NAS (iperf3) = 2+Gb/s

Macbook (2.5Gb/s /Lan plugged into Microtik to test) <-> NAS (SMB) = 2+Gb/s

MacBook (2.5Gbp/s Lan plugged into Microtik to test) <-> NAS (http) = 2+Gb/s

Macbook (2.5Gbp/s Lan plugged into Microtik to test) <-> Internet = ~600-650 Mb/s

Hi, Thank you very much for your feedback.

Apart from the MacBook, can you reproduce this issue on another mobile device?

- Or does the PC also support a WiFi connection?

 

If you temporarily power off the satellite Deco X68, would it make any difference to the  Wi-Fi to LAN throughput on the MacBook?

 

By the way, I noticed you had the Deco for a while. Did this issue start recently?

Wait for your reply and best regards.

  @David-TP Hi,

 

Yes the PC does have WiFI as well - I disconnected the 10Gbit fibre and connected to WiFi and got around 100-120 Mbps (SMB)

 

I've old recently has cause to use the NAS with the Mac.

 

I'll try the other suggested test later

I've since  upgraded the X68s to BE65s and the problem remains.

 

A windows laptop next to the Macbook doesn't have the issue, so I'm thinking it's a Macbook problem
