    WD my Cloud PR4100

    It’s because in raid 5 use need three disks active so they each get a parity. Since you select hot spare it holds one drive “offline” and ready to go if one fails

    Attic Network setup

    Here is an idea. Get your isp to pull a new line into your house where you would like to put the main router AND there is already an existing wall connection. If they do it, then you can just buy an industrial switch for your attic and get all the wiring in your house working. If you have a WiFi...

    QNAP and VPN?

    Why would you never want the vpn server to run on a nas or other lan server. Why run it on the edge of your network? I have two setups now that use the nas boxes and they do just fine. Of course one one is a TVs-471 and the other a ts-453b so they have decent CPU’s. 16 go ram and 8 gb...

    QNAP and VPN?

    Your isp may be throttling vpn traffic. Since net neutrality ended here in the US internet service providers may now favor or punish some types of traffic. Based on what your saying and showing I think it’s intentionally be slowed. Do you have a paid vpn you could test. See if PIA or express vpn...

    What is the newest 6 bay from QNAP?

    I’m pretty sure you can go right to Qnaps site and find out. The other thing to keep in mind when buying these are performance specs. The better cpu and ram you have the longer potential it will continue to run the latest software. https://www.qnap.com/en-us/product/?conditions=0-6...

    QNAP and VPN?

    Are you using the vpn on your routers? If so what routers are they? I’m sure your tests are good but that transfer speed taking such a hit is rough. I’m just wondering if it’s a cpu bottle neck. Your max of 17 MB seems pretty good out of a max of 30 MB due to your brothers limiting internet...

    QNAP and VPN?

    Yes sorry I believe your correct. I use Rtrr and need the admin on the destination nas to be on. Definitely use the DDNS on the router rather than on your Qnap. Hope you get it all setup with decent performance! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    QNAP and VPN?

    Sorry for the delay. I think your port forwards are correct. What is the error message your getting? Could it be a permission issue? I know that I use two qnaps locally and to get the main one to sync to the second I had to use the admin account. Usually I disable admin ASAP as it’s the first...

    two-storey double brick internal walls - mesh?

    Best of luck. Please let us know how it works out. Like I said, in retrospect I wish I had the UDM so you need to tell me if I should really be jealous [emoji1] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Good no subscription parental control WiFi system

    I’ll give you one thing- it will follow the device it’s installed on. No matter what network you use it will be there. On the same token, Norton is a invasive beast that takes a lot of resources of the host it “infects”. I used them for many years until ditching them for web root as a main...

    QNAP and VPN?

    Yes that would be correct. If that’s the ip address for your old NAS then that’s what you’ll use. When your “new NAS” is a VPN client it should be getting an ip address in that same network making them peers on the same network and able to pass traffic to each other. Sent from my iPhone using...

    QNAP and VPN?

    Yes your old nas needs to be on his network. I just meant static so it doesn’t change on his network every time it’s rebooted. It’s needs to be on the correct network and correct subnet. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    3 Story house with plaster walls

    Reading your situation and seeing how may devices you are connecting to one WiFi router my best advice would be to call en electrician. Get them to wire up the third floor where your wife works. Get her on a dedicated hard wire connection and then put up another access point up there that’s got...
