What I thought would be an easy upgrade to increase transfer speed of my 920+ from my PC using the new SMB Multi-Channel so far is not working for me.
As I only had a single ethernet port on my Asus Motherboard, and there was some warning that suggested that each of the two ports on in my case a PC (Win10) should be identically rated … I opted to add a 2 Port PCI Express Card. (Dual-Port PCIe Gigabit Network Card 1000M PCI Express Ethernet Adapter with Intel 82575/82576 Two Ports LAN NIC Card for Support PXE for Windows)… Installed the Drivers and ticked SMB Multi-Channel.
The Diagram shown in Synology’s Knowledge Base was basic in that it shows 2 Cables from the NAS to the Switch and 2 Cables from the PC to the Switch. All 4 Cables connect to my LinkSys TL-SG1008D TP-Link 8 Port Gigabit Ethernet Network Switch …….
I benchmarked everything before starting using SpeedTest Tracker…. Following Marius Hosting’s steps, I installed the Docker Container and program. I thought I would be seeing Transfer Speeds between my PC and the 920+, but it appears its only charting my Internet up & Download Speeds.
Not certain as to its usefulness or accuracy, but when I did an incremental Backup in Reflect, it claims a Transfer Rate (PC to NAS) of 1.5 Gb/s
Suggestions are welcome…. Hopefully I’m missing something simple….

Using the Network Resource Monitor in DSM, I do show LAN 1 & 2 operational, but with 275kb/s Download.Not certain as to its usefulness or accuracy, but when I did an incremental Backup in Reflect, it claims a Transfer Rate (PC to NAS) of 1.5 Gb/s
