Does it worth upgrading your Fast Ethernet to GbE in a wireless router improve performance?
Wireless Performance Comparison
I want to accelerate uploading files to my QNAP Ts-119PII and bought RT-AC1200g+ to replace my RT-AC51u. Here is the test result in QNAP TS-119PII with Different Wireless Device on Mac OSX File Transfer Performance Report:
1. 802.11ac 433Mbps - 約 19MB/s
2. 802.11ac 867Mbps - 約 27MB/s
3. 802.11n 300Mbps @ 5GHz - 約 25MB/s
I use AFP uploading a 3.87GB file to QNAP TS-119PII with Seagate Laptop SSHD 1TB from Mac Mini 2012 Late.
GbE Reference
For your reference, QNAP TS-119PII with Seagate Laptop SSHD and Kingston V+100 SSD File Transfer Performance Report is a test report with a mixed file set transferring between an AIO and QNAP TS-119PII with 1TB Laptop SSHD using GbE. Upload using Samba is about 44MB/s while NFS is 36.8MB/s
Conclusion:
If you have a 802.11n 2T2R wireless router with GbE, you might feel downgrade after upgrading to a 802.11ac 1T1R with GbE.
Just my two cents.
