Well I see one huge potential problem
which is connected to my range extender
I suspect this is WiFi?

As @Davvo has said, you need to provide real details. Large Files, Small Files, your exact network layout, the remote computer specs, all of it matter in order to produce a reasonable answer. In the original posting you have 2,826 files you are transferring that total to 15GB. To me this is a lot of small files and performance of course will suffer. If you are using WiFi, that makes it worse.

Please provide more details. And try to transfer a single large file that is at least 1GB or larger, report the transfer speed of that as well.

This is the upload speed over lan and with a 3+ GB file:


You're using a mainboard with a Realtek 8111 ethernet chipset, one of the crappiest ethernet chipsets on the face of the planet. I'm really not surprised that it is drag-ass slow. It's so bad we even have a resource dedicated to the topic.


You can fix this by buying an Intel Desktop CT ethernet card (be sure it's legit, not a knockoff, avoid eBay and avoid Amazon) but the real fix in the future is to buy a server-oriented board because these typically come with high performance Intel ethernets and also other useful server oriented features.
