Painfully slow download speeds!

Hello all,

 

i have an old HP DX2400, Intel E7600, 6 GB RAM running LDS3615xs, loader v1.02b, DSM 6.1.4-15217 Update 1.

 

everything is running well except a weird transfer speed issue, I’m running all devices through a Gigabit switch, I’m getting around 60-70 MB/s upload speed to my box which is good enough but on the other hand I’m getting 1-2 MB/s download rate! Switching to my AC WiFi adapter on PC I get 350k!

 

Tried the test with different PC/Laptops and different files with different sizes, reloaded the installation from scratch with a different HDD but no luck. Btw I’m only using a single HDD in this box since I’m still testing for functionality and stability at the moment.

 

My aging DS212j runs at around 30-40 MB/s up and down as it always has so I’m kinda sure it’s not the network or the PCs connected to the box.

 

wondering what could this be, appreciate all the assistance I can get.

Feels like i'm talking to myself here but i hope someone would take the time to give some feedback.

 

Apparently the above combination was working but i decided to reload the system with new drives and the same config, same problem reoccured, full Gigabit speeds up but with 2 mb down speeds !

 

i tried all possible configs so far, with and without extra.lzma. 

 

1- ethtool eth0 output:

Supported ports: [ TP ]
        Supported link modes:   10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full
                                100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full
                                1000baseT/Full
        Supported pause frame use: No
        Supports auto-negotiation: Yes
        Advertised link modes:  10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full
                                100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full
                                1000baseT/Full
        Advertised pause frame use: Symmetric Receive-only
        Advertised auto-negotiation: Yes
        Speed: 1000Mb/s
        Duplex: Full
        Port: Twisted Pair
        PHYAD: 0
        Transceiver: internal
        Auto-negotiation: on
        MDI-X: Unknown
        Supports Wake-on: pumbg
        Wake-on: g
        Current message level: 0x00000033 (51)
                               drv probe ifdown ifup

 

2- dmesg |grep eth0 output:

[   28.057505] eth0: 0xffffc9001170c000, 00:22:64:c0:e5:21, IRQ 18
[   28.085655] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready
[   29.338180] init: dhcp-client (eth0) main process (8745) killed by TERM signal
[   31.091525] r8168: eth0: link up
[   31.091544] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): eth0: link becomes ready
[   32.218219] init: dhcp-client (eth0) main process (9060) killed by TERM signal

 

3- lspci -k | grep 'Kernel driver' output: 

Kernel driver in use: uhci_hcd
        Kernel driver in use: uhci_hcd
        Kernel driver in use: ehci-pci
        Kernel driver in use: pcieport
        Kernel driver in use: pcieport
        Kernel driver in use: uhci_hcd
        Kernel driver in use: uhci_hcd
        Kernel driver in use: uhci_hcd
        Kernel driver in use: uhci_hcd
        Kernel driver in use: ehci-pci
        Kernel driver in use: lpc_ich
        Kernel driver in use: ahci
        Kernel driver in use: r8168

 

The main box spec sheet says that i'm supposed to have an "Integrated Realtek 8111C-GR GbE Ethernet Controller; Intel PRO/1000 PT Gigabit PCIe Controller" not an r8168

 

Please assist !!!!!
