Slow transfer speed over VPN connection

Hello,
Recently I setup an SSL VPN to connect to my parent's home network. I have some computers there, and want to try to transfer files between my computer and the one at my parent's. Over the VPN connection, I only get 128kb/s. On both ends, they are 15Mbps connections, and can support internal copies of 4 megs/s. I feel like I should get a better speed than that. I looked around, and people suggested changing the MTU. I have changed the MTU around, and not noticed any increase in the network speed over the VPN. Currently the MTU is at 1500. Below is a copy of my running config. Any thing I'm overlooking, or is this speed normal? Sorry, still relatively new to the ASA 5505.

Hi,
Another option is the use of the compression command, this is usually enabled by default but maybe you can enter it due to is not showed in the running config, the command is compression svc.
Note: The command helps when we have low bandwitdh connections, the command reduces the size if the packets, for broadband connections this can decrease regular performance

How do I fix the slow transfer speed over USB on my 24" iMac?

I am backing up/cloning with SuperDuper, and running Lion. The displayed transfer speed never gets past about 20mb per second. Painfully slow.... Any suggestions?

Actually that's pretty good for USB. USB is slow - there is nothing you can do about it. Firewire always has been faster. Personally, I only use external Firewire drives for cloning or backing up. Even then, if it's a fresh clone, it'll take moe than an hour for 160 GB.
So, I schedule it when I have other things to do and walk away until it's done.

I get slow *** tranzfer speeds over da Ethernet. Why dis?

Hello, I have a pc running windows 8.1 and a Mac Pro (2006 edition) that are on the same router (both via ethernet). I have them both connected to each other using their respective "connect to another computer" features, and thus can access each other's hard drives. With that said, when I transfer data from one to the other (say, from the Mac to the PC), it results in slow *** transfer speeds (between 4 and 10 MB/s max). Why? (I have accounted for the usual-suspect variables, such as hard drives, and ethernet cables by using different hard drives and ethernet cables.) it has been at 3 MB/s for about 40 minutes now. Why?

Each computer should be wired to your Gigabit Ethernet capable SWITCH or Router. If you do not have a Gigabit Ethernet capable SWITCH or your Router ports are slower than Gigabit speed, Apple sells a five-port Gigabit Ethernet SWITCH in the Apple online store for about US$55.
Computer-to-Computer File transfers are handled directly by the SWITCH, they do not need to use the Router function.
Gigabit Ethernet requires cables with all 8 wires present, and Power-over-Ethernet is not allowed on those cables.

External firewire hard drive reverts to slower transfer speeds

This is the strangest hardware problem I've come across. I'm running a unibody mbp (June 2009) with an external WD 2.0TB Caviar Green drive mounted in a firewire 800 enclosure made by icydock.
Lately, I've noticed that after an unknown amount of uptime, the speed of file transfers to the WD external drive slows down dramatically. I figured this out by watching my time machine transfers take a bit longer after awhile, and I verified this using aja system test and speedutilities.
When I boot my mbp in the morning, file transfers and time machine backups to the external WD transfer at a rate of about 67-75MB/s. This is the speed the drive should always be working at since it's connected via firewire 800. Aja speedtest verifies the speed is as it should be as well.
Then, after a couple hours of using my mbp, or even later in the day, I'll transfer a file to the external WD or run a time machine backup and find that the transfer will only run at a max of 29-35MB/s. This is exactly half the speed the transfer should be going at. Subsequent transfers stay at this slower rate no matter what I do.
However, I've been able to fix this problem by unmounting and remounting the external WD or restarting my mbp. After doing either of these actions, the WD external goes back to contant transfers at 75-80Mbs. So something is happening where the longer the mbp is running, or after some sort of disk activity, the external WD reverts to a slower transfer speed (closer to FW400). I can't isolate whether it's an issue on the mac os side or the hard drive or the hard drive enclosure because I can make the hard drive go back to optimal speed again merely by unmounting and remounting it. This works consistently until a few hours later when the drive begins to handle transfers at half speed again.
I run hourly time machine backups to the drive. The time machine backups can't be the culprit because the drive remains running at optimal speed after the backups (verified with aja system test and speed utilities)
Any possible ideas as to why the drive cuts down to half its optimal transfer rate after a bit of time? I can't figure out the cause of this, and the consistency of the drop leads me to think this is an issue with the power management on the drive since it reverts to full fw800 speed when I umount and remount the drive or restart my computer. Could this be an OSX issue where for some reason the system isn't negotiating the fastest speed?
Any help appreciated.

From the SoftRAID manual:
Fire hubs and disk drives. FireWire hubs are notorious for introducing errors and instability onto the bus.
Make sure that all of your consumer electronic devices (iSight, cameras, scanners) are connected to a separate FW bus. These devices are not built to the same standards as storage devices and known for introducing errors onto a FW bus.
Cables. While most cables work fine with a single device, many cables will introduce errors when 2 or more disks are connected to the bus.

Slow Transfer Speeds For File Transfer Manager 5.0 Build 0032

I have a 20Mbit internet connection. When I download from the Microsoft download site I can get files downloading at reported speeds of up to 1.7 Mbytes per second.
When downloading from the TechNet Benefits section I have to use the Transfer Manager and I can only get speeds that vary between 30-80 Kbytes per second. Rarely any faster.
I am using XPPro & IE7 straight out onto the Internet via my router / firewall. No proxy server.
What can I do to speed the process up or bypass the File Download Manager?
Regards.

Thanks for your feedback Tekky. FYI there is also a forum specifically for TechNet Website Feedback which is the more appropriate place for TechNet Subscriptions questions at http://social.technet.microsoft.com/forums/en/tnfeedback/threads/
There are many suggestions in this post about improving your network speeds when downloading from MSDN and TechNet subscriptions sites. Here is one more place to look for tips, which we have linked to from our Downloads and Product Keys FAQ (MSDN version, TechNet version):
The website for the Microsoft File Transfer Manager, particularly their troubleshooting page which includes additional discussion on configuring the FTM and on slow transfer speeds.
As Julie stated above, you can call TechNet Customer support and they can take you through some additional troubleshooting and diagnostic steps to assist. Julie has linked to the support phone numbers in her reply.
Thanks,

Slow transfer speeds between Mac Pro and Shared Drive on Windows Domain

Hi Guys,
Getting really slow transfer speeds when I try and transfer a file from a Mac Pro to a shared network drive on one of our Windows 2003 Servers.
The Mac Pro is logged on to windows domain. This data is transferring via our hard network, not via wireless. Not having any other transfer speed issues on any other PC's.
For example an 8mb file took around 45 mins.
Hope you can help. Many Thanks.

I saw this at a site where they were using DFS with Server 2003. When the few Mac's they had connected to the actual server and uploaded the file it was okay. But when it was sending the file via the \\DFS_node\share_name the Mac took heaps longer for the same file. Watching the Activity Monitor > Network monitor you could see gaps with the data transfer, as if there was some pausing between packets. A pcap showed that there was constant DNS requests coming from the Mac, even after the connection to the share was made. The same wasn't happening when the connection via SMB was directly to the actual file server. As there was only a few Mac on site they left it with the direct connection but were getting an MS specialist in to look at it. Never heard what happened with that one but you may want to try monitoring the packet transfer to see if the data movement is contstant or breaking. I'd also recommend getting Wireshark to monitor the transfer. You can compare upload to download and maybe even the transfer from the Mac to an MS workgroup share.

How can i use an existing vpn connection without using the option "Send all traffic over vpn connection"?

I have been trying to get my computer (os x.7) to astablish a remote desktop connection to my work computer via a vpn tunnel. In fact I have just discovered that it works fine if i select to "send all traffic over vpn connection" from the options in the advanced setup of the vpn.
If the option is selected microsofts "Remote desktop connection for mac" works just fine. However without selecting the option it is not taking advantage of the tunnel but tries to connect as if the tunnel would not exist.
Now the question is how do I get program to use the vpn tunnel without checking the above option?
Thanks for any hints and pointers.

Then can her computer be authorized to both accounts?
Absolutely. You can authorize any given computer to up to five iTunes Store accounts.
If purchases are made on her account, to a computer authorized to my account, can I put those songs on my iPod?
If you connect your iPod to her computer, yes. Tracks download only to the computer from which they're purchased, regardless of which iTunes Store account is used for the purchase. Or you could copy the tracks from her computer to yours and then authorize your computer to her iTunes Store account. But that's sort of defeating the original purpose, it would seem to me.
is it better to buy music through Amazon downloads and/or actually purchasing CDs to avoid the security features iTunes puts on its music?
That's certainly an option. If it's an entire album I want, I buy CDs. That way I can import them at the quality I want and to whichever of my systems I want. Amazon or one of the other download stores that offer tracks as MP3 are also an option, though for me download stores are best when you just want a couple of tracks off a given CD.

EJB transaction hanging over VPN connection

EJB transaction hanging over VPN connection
I am trying to diagnose a problem that only occurs when I am doing testing from home and connected via VPN to work.
We are using WL 10.3. Our clusters are setup to communicate via multicast. We have a stateless session bean that uses many different resources (Sybase DB, other EJBs, Sonic JMS). I have a local EJB on my home network that I am testing and it connects with other EJBs and resources on my corporate network. While I don't think it is related to the problem, there is a cluster of the same EJB I am trying to test deployed to my corporate environment. i.e. I am testing ResetService EJB and there is a deployed domain cluster of several ResetService EJBs in the environment I am connecting to. My local server and admin domain are named differently than the one deployed and my local ejb shouldn't try to connect to the cluster in the environment.
When I make a call into my local ejb everything seems to work as expected until it gets to the commit part of the transaction (after my ejb returns). At this point the executing thread hangs at the following location
"[STUCK] ExecuteThread: '16' for queue: 'weblogic.kernel.Default (self-tuning)'" daemon prio=2 tid=0x2e8cb400 nid=0x22fc in Object.wait() [0x3031f000]

        at weblogic.work.ExecuteThread.run(ExecuteThread.java:173)This thread is obviously waiting for a notification from some other thread but it is unclear what exactly it is waiting for. This only seems to happen when I am connected via VPN because when I try this same setup connected directly to my corporate network at work it works fine.
I connected w/ debugger and tried to dig. Some interesting observations I see are.
1) The ServerTransactionImpl object that is hanging has a 'preferredHost' of a different machine on my corporate network. It is an EJB that my service got some information from but it wasn't involved in any create, update, or delete aspects of the tran so in theory it shouldn't be part of it. Does anyone know what exactly this peferredHost attribute is signifying? I also see this same remote ejb server reference defined in a ServerCoordinatorDescriptor variable.
2) I also sometimes see other XA resources (JMS) with this ServerTransactionImpl that point to references of resources that live on other machines on my corporate network (not my local ejb). This doesn't always seem to be the case though.
VPN will definetly block multicast packets from the corporate env back to my machine. I don't think it works from my machine to the corporate env machines either.
I also have two IPs when connected over VPN. One for my local home network and one given to me by my VPN client. I have setup my local WL server to listen on the VPN client provided IP which the corporate machines should be able to resolve and send TCP message over.
This definetly seems to be transaction related because when I remove the tran support from my ejb things work as expected. The problem is I need to test within the transaction just like it runs in a deployed environment so this isn't really a fix.
My theory: My local test WL EJB is waiting for a communication from some other server before it can commit the tran. This communication is blocked due to my VPN connection. I just don't know what exactly it is trying to communicate and how to resolve if that is in fact the problem. I thought about looking into unicast rather than multicast for cluster communication but in my mind that doesn't come into play here because I am not deploying a local cluster for my EJB and I thought multicast was just used for inter-cluster communication.
I also saw some docs talking about resources need to be uniquely named when inter-domain communication is performed (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E13222_01/wls/docs81/ConsoleHelp/jta.html#1120356).
Anyone have any thoughts on what might be going on?

BPC NW 10.0 - Over VPN connection, can't launch Excel add-in - can't download/install Office EPM add-in

Dear All,
I am facing a serious problem in BPC 10.0 NW version.
I am using Windows 8.1(64 bit) and Firefox Version 30. And, trying to access BPC 10.0 web over VPN connection.
After establishing VPN connection, I am able to login to BPC web. But, the landing page shows only the Admin link. It is not showing other links to laucnh Excel, Word, Powerpoint. Instead, as usual, There is a button(Install) to Install EPM office addin.
When I clicked the Install button, download just stops immediately, showing the byte size as ZERO. I believe since I have established VPN connection, it is not letting me to go to the Internet to download the EPM office addin. It sounds logical. But, I need to resolve this i.e. I should be able to launch Excel interface from the BPC web(web interface). This issue is eating my time.
I am getting the same result for IE 11.0 and Chrome 35.0 version browser as well.
Pls. note that, I am able to launch Excel DIRECTLY from the machine and establish connection to BPC web and everything works fine here.
Pls. help to resolve this.
Thank you.
Regards,
Peri

Hi Peri,
I just wanted to know if you resolved the issue since I've been also getting the same issue and it's eating lots of time .. :-(
Could you please share the solution if it's now working fine?

External hard drive, error -36, corrupt files and slow transfer speeds

This is a long post but stay with me.
I've got an external 250GB Lacie drive connected to my 24" Intel iMac via Firewire 800. I have approximately 80GB worth of files (including my iPhoto library) on the Lacie that I'm trying to move over to my iMac but have run into some frustrating problems.
Overall, transfer speeds are erratic – fine at times and SUPER SLOW (5 minutes to transfer a 3MB file) at other times. At first I was transferring entire folders, but after always getting errors (error -36 to be exact), I was having to transfer individual files. This works fine as long as the files aren't too big (which makes the transfer speeds SUPER SLOW) and not corrupt (which gets me an error -36). Is my Lacie crashing on me? Is there any hope?
Here's what I've done to try and salvage my sanity with no resolve to my problems (not exactly in this order):
1) Ran Disk Utility to repair Lacie. Everything came back OK
2) Ran Disk Warrior on Lacie. Found a handful of bad items that Disk Warrior was able to repair. Had Disk Warrior replace the old directory of the Lacie with the new directory.
3) Ran Drive Genius: Raired and Rebuilt the directory, did an Integrity Check (came back OK), attempted to Defrag but could not because of errors to the drive, did a Scan for bad blocks (which after running for 3 days! it was only 20% complete and had found over 150 bad blocks, at which point I quit to try something else)
4) Checked that my Firewire cable was properly connected and replaced the older one I was using with a brand new one.
5) Disconnected all peripherals except for keyboard, mouse and Lacie.
6) And at times, even viewing a file on the Lacie has caused my Finder to crash, requiring a restart of my iMac.
I'm sure I've left something off I've tried but you get the idea.
I've read that maybe I can transfer my files using Terminal. Yes/No? Does this bypass any corruption the files may have?
What about creating a second partition on the Lacie and moving files over to the second partition? Does this solve anything? I don't know anything about partitioning so maybe I'm talking crazy.
I've also read that iPhoto tends to corrupt files which makes me hate iPhoto, and myself for not backing up.
And I've read a lot about error -36's and none of it sounds good so I'm just hoping that someone might have other suggestions for me to try and save my files (especially my iPhoto files which include baby pictures that if I lose, my wife will kill me).
So if anyone has any ideas, let me know. Please. I'll try anything.

Hi Aaron Thompson-
I am fairly certain you have a bad power supply brick to the LaCie drive. This is a hard problem to troubleshoot as generally when the bricks go bad they do so slowly and the drive appears to power up and stuff but it just doesn't work.
If the drive is under warranty LaCie will replace the brick at no charge. Otherwise they sell them for around $20US on their website.

Very slow transfer speeds with external hard drives through Firewire and US

Hi All,
My external drives transfer very slowly on my MacPro. I've been searching for answers and have turned up very little. Apple support suggested I post my issue here. Just to make a note, I measured my disk speeds with both AJA System Test and copying files between drives and reading the Disk Activity in Activity Monitor.
I have 3 external drives, all MyBook Premium or Professional, 1x 500GB, 1x 1TB and 2x 1TB in RAID 0. I had them on Firewire 400 and the RAID 0 2TB one on Firewire 800. My transfers on FW were all around 24MB/sec on all drives (much less than what I should be getting with FW400). I then read somewhere that the FW bus on the MacPro uses the slowest speed connected for all FW connections. So I unplugged everything but the FW800 Raid 0 drive and my transfer rate jumped to 40-60MB/sec. This is much better, but still about half or so of what I expect it should be producing from an external RAID 0 setup.
To keep my FW800 backup drive faster, I've plugged the other two into USB2.0. The transfer speeds on both drives are now hideous, around 10-15MB/sec. This is so slow, but I'm not sure what to try to fix my speeds.
The HD's in the external drives are all 7200rpm, and all should be transferring at a higher rate. Do you have any suggestions or ideas? Ideally I'd like to get everything transferring at rates they should be transferring at, but I'll settle with my current FW800 speed of 40-60MB/sec if I can get my other two drives transferring at a non-snail pace.
Is this a common issue? I can't believe I'm the only one plugging multiple external hard drives into their Mac Pro. I hope someone has a fix or solution for this. I'm all ears!
Thanks in advance.

Hi Kappy, thanks for the information.
So I rejigged my setup a tad. My RAID 0 is still FW800, the second drive is back on FW400 on the back port, and the third is USB 2.0 on the back as well.
It's interesting to note that I saw the FW800 taking a bandwidth hit if the FW400 drives was being read/written to. For example, if I was averaging 50-60MB/sec on the FW800 drives and copy something large to the FW400 drive, each drive averages out to about 30/MB second, roughly half the FW800 speed I was getting. The USB while the slowest didn't cause any slowness on the FW drives.
Here are my Xbench results. These results are from each drive being benchmarked individually with no other drives being tested at the same time.

Too slow transfer speed for Toshiba 3.0

Hi there
i just purchased a toshiba 3.0 external hdd.
I use windows 7 genuine.
My pc specs are pretty ok cos i am able to run heavy games like crysis 2.
The problem is, My external hdd has slow transfer rates. This problem i started facing aroung 3 months ago. My hdd is out of warranty.
My USB ports are ok and i connect it to primary port.
The transfer speeds are just around 10MBPS and sometimes it drops to KBPS!!!!
Also, it does not copy some files and gives error "Failed to read from source disk" or something like that.
There is no Virus in it, I have enabled write-cache. I have defragged it.
My OS is fine and also, i checked it on other OSes.
Also, i have tried using "check disk for errors" with proper procedure but it hangs somewhere in the middle after it processes 500000 sectors or so.
I got my HDD from my cousin as he no more used PC and without any cover so i dont have any idea of model (although if there is any utility to find model then please notify me).
Also, it worked fine during then. Me and my cousin are from India only.
How can i fix this issue?
Please help me.

Please dont understand me wrong but if the case is urgent call Toshiba hotline in your country or contact nearest Toshiba service provider.

Very slow transfer speed between 2 computers in the same network

I recently bought a new laptop (Lenove G510) with win 8.1 pre-installed.
When i download files of the internet, my speed is ok, for wireless, but when tranfering files between computers (The other computer is a win 7), the transfer speed is really slow (2-4 MB/s). The transfers takes forever, and are relly unstable. It bounces from 1 - 4 Mb/s all the time and will not stabilize.
The same applys when streaming to other devices (Media Center). The video being streamd will just go frame by frame, and it is no fun watching...
Why is my transfer speed in local networsk so slow?? How can i fix this?
I use AVG Anitvirus, and I have tried disabeling it before transer, whitout results...
I have also updated BIOS, Chipset and the driver for the wireless network card...
I can also mention that when I turn my computer on, the internet connection is lost to all other devices... I then need to reset the router, and then the connection is fine again. This was never a problem before I got Windows 8.1, and is not a problem while the computer is turned of.
In advanced, thansk for any replys/tips
Regars, Morten

Just to be sure it's set up properly, please work through the steps on this page:

V. Slow transfer speeds with new dual band Airport Extreme

I have a new Airport Extreme (late 2009, dual band, full 'N' spec) which I am using to replace an older Airport Extreme (early 2008, 5Ghz, 'draft' N).
I have a USB disk attached and was interested in benchmarking the transfer speed of the new Extreme, compared to the previous version. The results are puzzling / alarming.
Shown below are transfer speeds (file copied to the attached USB drive) under different connection standards (2.4Ghz / 5Ghz & a/b/g/n)
'Old' Airport Extreme
5Ghz - 'draft' N : ~5-7 Mb/sec
'New' Airport Extreme
2.4Ghz - b/g : ~3-5 Mb/sec
5.0Ghz - a : ~3-7 Mb/sec
5.0Ghz - N : ~200 Kb/sec
Hence transfer speeds appear to collapse when I try to make use of the 'N' spec with the latest Extreme. I have tried altering items such as - wide channels (on / off), interference robustness (on / off), 5Ghz channel (manual, instead of auto), with no upside.
I seem to be at the point of concluding that either
1. I have a 'broken' Airport Extreme
2. The WiFi card on my early 2008 iMac (which implements I guess the 'draft' N standard) is 'incompatible' with new the Airport Extreme under a 'N' connection.
Any thoughts ?

Since all devices in my wireless network are capable of latest 802.11n protocol, I really do not need older and slower 802.11a/b/g protocols. To achieve above 200 Mbit/sec, 5GHz band with wide channel option turned on is really necessary. Thus I really wish I can turn off the 2.4GHz radio band (seems Apple has set this band as default) of my new dual band Airport Extreme to avoid unwanted bandwidth degradation. Unfortunately this is not possible with radio mode setting in Airport Utility.
The best I can do to force connection with 5GHz radio band (with quite consistent result) is as follows:
On Airport Extreme through [Airport Utility>Wireless] :
Radio Mode: 802.11n only (5Ghz) - 802.11b/g/n
More Options>Wireless Network Option>Transmit Power: 100%
More Options>Wireless Network Option>Use Wide Channels: checked
More Options>Wireless Network Option>5 GHz Network Name:
checked and same network name with extra suffix "(5 GHz)"
On 27" iMac through [System Preferences>Network>AirPort>Advanced>AirPort]:
Preferred Networks:
Create only one profile in Preferred Networks for the above network name with suffix "(5GHz)"
Uncheck the option [Remember networks this computer has joined] to ensure there is only one profile under Preferred Networks .
Once all above settings are done, restart Airport Extreme in Airport Utility. Your computer should connect wirelessly to the base station through 5GHz band after booting most of the time. Even when it is not occasionally, simply go to the Airport icon in main menu bar and click on the network name with suffix "(5GHz)" in dropped-down list to connect manually. With all these settings, I have achieved 300 Mbit/sec bandwidth on my iMac most of the time for fast Time Machine backup.
How I wish feature for better radio mode control by end user will be implemented in next update of Airport Utility. Apple should trust end user's brain better than artificial intelligence (or ignorance ?) in wireless network implementation. Wireless traffic between the two radio bands and among various wireless devices should be segregated specifically in Airport Utility by end users whenever dual band Airport base stations are in use.

Slow transfer speeds between two macs

The general setup: an iMac Intel 20" and an iBook G4 1,2GHz connected via an Airport Express (newest edition), both computers running 10.4.7.
When trying to transfer files via AFP between the two on my local network, I get "tremendous" speeds of about 0.5-1 MB/sec. Why is this so incredibly slow? Is it because of encryption or something similar? I can download off the internet with greater speed than that!

i have exactly the same problem , using a macbook black g1 . slow network speeds and flakey internet . these were ok when I first got the machine . but are now slow as . using the network view of menumeters I see that if i try and shift files from my mac mini they are incredibly slow with menumeters show 0.0kb/s for seconds at a time .
to trouble shoot this problem I used another friends macbook configured with exactly the same settings on this network and the transfer speeds were as they should be which was about 1.5-2.5 megs/sec .
so i figure there is some preference corrupted but which one ?
I have experienced several crashes recently . because of the overheating bug I have the fix applied to my machine and the firmware update . Maybe the network preference got corrupted at that point .
any tips as to which preference to delete would be appreciated .
