I have jumbo frames enabled on my Physical wired connection because I only use that for large data transfers, otherwise all my traffic is wireless.

Here is how I enabled Jumbo Frames

Right Click on Network Connections

Select Properties

Select the Physical NIC

Right Click and go to Properties

Click the Configure Button

Select the Advanced Tab

Scroll to Jumbo Frames and select it

Set the value to 9014 Byte

Thats it. It is enabled.

FASTEST WAY TO COPY FILES BETWEEN TWO SYNOLOGY NAS DEVICES

Windows is slow…takes weeks to copy 15TB between two devices if you use explorer. Here is how you copy the files in hours instead of weeks.

On your Windows 11 computer

Open Explorer

Navigate to Synology 1

Map a Drive from your Windows 11 pc to the Synology Share
ex. Drive X will be \\Synology1\Share

Now do the same for Synology 2 and the share you want to map.
ex. Drive Y will be \\Synology2\Share

On your Windows 11 pc, now open PowerShell (not as Administrator, just open PowerShell)

Type:
robocopy ‘X:\FolderYouAreCopyingFrom’ ‘Y:\FolderYouAreCopyingTo’ /S /E /MT:32 /NFL /NDL /NJH /NJS

example: robocopy ‘X:\SourceCode\Documents’ ‘Y:\NewSourceCodeRepo\Documents’ /S /E /MT:32 /NFL /NDL /NJH /NJS /V

You will copy thousands of files per second over a 1GbE network
