Question...

[Asset]

Hi all, I'm fairly new here. I have a question with the synology 410j unit. I was wondering is the download speed from the wan into my nas speed right. I'm downloading a file that is about 4-6 gig. big and its about 2 days? That calculates to not even 1meg its about 700 kbps. My question is, is this the right download speed form outside the lan into my nas at home? Thank-you

My calculation for a 4 GB file and two days is 48 KBytes/sec.

Whether this is ok, depends on many factors including the speed of the server that you are downloading from. Also, how are you downloading to the NAS?

What is the download rate if you download to your computer instead of the NAS?

If your asking about the uploaded file to my NAS, its fast and I'm happy with its performance. But when my friend is downloading a file from my NAS using filezilla client, he says it takes forever. I was just wondering is this right? I have the Synology 410j unit. What is the normal download speed for this synology 410j unit? Thank-you for your reply, I do appreciate it very much. Sorry if I am too noob to understand this

If your friend is trying to download the file from your NAS over the Internet (not via LAN), the speed is probably being limited by your Internet uplink speed.
