Got a nas: http://tinyurl.com/mbgduv (Iomega 1TB model)
(Linux based)

But it has taken almost 2 hours to copy
59.7GB from an F11 box to it.
same subnet.

I think the slowness maybe due to the F11 10/100 nic.
Am I right in this?

ping -c 4 while file transfer ongoing
4 packets transmitted, 4 received, 0% packet loss, time 3003ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.157/2.652/5.633/2.518 ms


Now looking at: http://tinyurl.com/yjc5qdo (Komplett)

Netgear, due to seeing somewhere, you should try keep everything
from same manufacturer if possible, all my routers wired\wireless are
Netgear, urban legend?
