My home network seems to be slower than it should be, and I don’t know why. I’ve got a Vodafone wireless router with N and AC, and gigabit ports. My computer and two Buffalo hard drives are connected through 200Mb/s homeplugs, and everything else is wireless. Everything wireless is using N instead of AC. There’s a gigabit switch between the hard drives and the homeplug.
When I transfer files between my desktop and the media PC, I get about 5MB/s max. The computers are both in the same room as the router, one on the homeplug, and one on wifi. My PC, the router, and the two hard drives are connected to three separate homeplugs because of the room layout. My whole network seems to be slow, but the two computers are the only things that I can transfer files between easily.
Other than running cables directly to the computers and the router, what should I be doing to rule things out? Thanks for any help guys 🙂
