Please, help
Thank you very much
P.S: can i save data with ext 4 format toward other brand ?

my Synology can send big file data at well beyond that needed for 1080p.
What convinces you that the problem is the NAS (assuming you do indeed have a 100 or 1000BT connection from NAS to destination device and the switch is NOT incorrectly in 10BT mode, etc.)?

I change different switch and still having problem with it, what else could be wrong ?
Could you tell me how change the speed of the switch please

 

[stevech]

A proper switch automatically selects the best speed that is supported by connected devices.

May I suggest you start a thread in the networking forums here to get help with this?

Just for last question before i jump in network forum, what do you recommend what kind,model switch could be use for streaming movies
Thank you

if your end device is gigabit ethernet capable, then make sure to have that kind of switch.
That's called 10/100/1000BT.
A switch supporting all 3 speeds is a good choice... not much difference in price.
I recommend a Netgear Pro line (metal case) switch. I have these, and I also have a year's use on really-cheapie Fry's store brand 10/100/1000 switches.

It may well be that your problem is other than the switch. Your end device may be 10/100 not gigabit. Make sure that the LEDs on the device and switch show that it connects at 100 or 1000, not 10.
Even 100BT is enough for 1080i and probably 1080p as well.

What happens if you use a different CAT cables do you have any 5e laying around. I would test a direct route from the NAS to the system you want to view the 1080p on? Then you can figure it's not the NAS nor the Cable. Are the ports on these devices you view on set to FD to match your devices your viewing on. The NAS your using it the better ones..
