 PC hanging - smokie
I think it's fixed.

This morning I grabbed a lan speed tester (this one totusoft.com/lanspeed )and it showed extraordinarily slow speeds from my PC to the NAS, consistently much slower than other devices, even those on WiFi.

The NAS is on the Virgin router and my PC is on a Gigabit hub which has an uplink to the router. The VM router also provides the local WiFi in my office.

So I swapped the NAS LAN cable from the hub to the router and the speed went up by a magnitude of about 10 or more, and became fairly consistent rather than varying up and down. I tried different cables from NAS to router but no good. I then rebooted the hub and wherever I now put the cables I get the good speeds. I am thinking the port the router was plugged into on the hub had a crisis which a reboot of the hub fixed. Of course the other devices which were not showing an issue were connected by WiFi so not going through that router.

Obvious now I think about it!! And annoying cos I'd rebooted everything else but that hub was out of sight out of mind. Many hours wasted.

Thanks you all for your input, it really is appreciated. Virtual beers owed all round!!!
