[bb-qq]

Are you using the built-in Ethernet port at the same time? If you are, are the two ports configured for the same network segment?

[ossource]

2.5GbE adapter only, with two ports there would be routing issues ;) I wait till SMB Multichannel will be supported in DSM7.1 :)

[bb-qq]

Ok, I understood there is no routing issue.

Increasing MTU to 9000 and setting the SMB protocol version to v3 may help to improve performance. Try it if you like.
