      Did you see this one
      https://www.reddit.com/r/synology/comments/f2s6nv/only_getting_1gbit_transfer_speeds_rather_than/

      Something about SMB signing

      SMB Signing is related to Domains (as far as I can tell and something that was mentioned in the Reddit you sent). One of the Synology troubleshooting guides mentioned SMB Signing as well, but it was only if the Synology was part of a Domain setup.

        Do you see any Avoton arch - iperf packages

          Install that spk, then ssh to your nas, then just run iperf3 -s

          Then hit your nas IP from linux or windows client also running iperf.. I compile iperf3 for windows myself..

          Here is that
          iperf3.9_64.zip

            That one worked. Is there a specific way to turn on the server part (do I need to do it from the command line or is it just always running)?

              see my post above yours ;) I edited it.

              from the client you would run iperf3 -c ipaddressofnas

              edit: To @bingo600 rant on smb tests.. I really agree there... While slow smb transfers of can be a symptom of network problems. It doesn't prove that there is a network issue..

              If you do an iperf and its slow - then that can explain your slow smb. If your your iperf test shows the network is fine for speed, then your slow smb problem is something else..

              The iperf you showed are not normal for a gig network... So something is clearly not right there..

              But lets see test from device A to B on the same network - this should be 940ish maxed out if everything is perfect.. But as long as your in the 800's - could just be driver issue, etc.. Maybe you need to do some tweaking of the driver settings or something. But if you were seeing 800ish on your network... You should be seeing more than 80MBps -- should be 100 or so.. And you sure shouldn't be seeing wild fluctuations in the transfer

                  And are you running firewall on your NAS?

                      Now .. Your pfSense or your NAS isn't blocking the iperf packages ?
                      I usually "cheat" and run iperf as root ... Not that that would help if iptables is blocking.

                        Are you running it through pfsense? - port 5201 is the default port.. That will have to be allowed, but refused points to OS sending back icmp saying NO. Ie an OS firewall. If your trying to use a 2.x client on your test client the port is different.. You need to use iperf3 on both client and server - the nas version is 3.7, I uploaded windows 3.9 version which work fine together.

                          It is from the system on the same network (so not pfSense at this point). Running a "netstat -nato" on the Synology, I don't see it listening on port 5201. I am using 3.1.3 on Windows.

                            You see this?

                            ash-4.3# iperf3 -s

                            -----------------------------------------------------------
                            

                            From another ssh prompt, you should see it running

                            netstat -anl | grep 5201
                            tcp6       0      0 :::5201                 :::*                    LISTEN

                              The "server usually" shows what port it listens on

                              iperf3 -s

                                    And I also uploaded the lastest 3.9 version for windows.. not sure why you would be running some old 3.1 version ;) Are you on linux - if so I Know they have later than 3.1 available

                                      Install that spk, then ssh to your nas, then just run iperf3 -s

                                      Then hit your nas IP from linux or windows client also running iperf.. I compile iperf3 for windows myself..

                                        oh if your on say 18 of ubuntu, yeah that looks like only 3.1.3.. 21 currently has 3.9

                                        but shouldn't matter 3.1 to 3.7 would be ok, same port used.

                                          Actually, nothing was missed. That part does not show on my side.

                                            The system has been auto updating the posts as they come in. I am guessing you edited it after the initial post and the system did not update it. When I refresh the whole thread, it now shows up (the screen shot was before I refresh the whole thread).

                                            If you look at my post after yours with the Quote, it still shows the initial post quote that I responded to (which doesn't have the included instructions).
