Hello,
I work in multimedia production and often need to transfer groups of large media files from my Macbook Pros to my Graphics Workstation (Windows) which is wired via Gbit ethernet.
I have been using a TP Link AC1750 router and was getting file transfer speeds of about 24MB/sec.
I have upgraded to a Linksys ea9500 v2 abgn+ac 5400Gb/s router and was getting file transfer speeds of about 29MB/sec.
I have a small home and have tried putting the Macbook Pro's right next to the router which does not seem to effect file transfer speed. I have tried a wired connection via ethernet, but the network seems reluctant recognize the Macbooks that way.
Are speeds of 29MB/sec decent for a router like this?
Would I be better off simply using a USB SSD for such transfers and give up the idea of using the network to copy large files?
Any advice/comments appreciated, thanks.
