I am trying to copy files through LAN using ES file explorer and it is painfully slow.
That said, my wifi appear to be fast enough (I get 54Mbps up/down which means, it should write at few MB/s)
Does not matter whether I am writing to the internal storage or external storage.
Not just ES file explorer, midnight commander also is having an issue.
I am wondering whether Nougat upgrade breaks SMB access/stack for some reason.
Can someone confirm/verify?
Just checked and downloads from my cloud account is not affected so it isn't my SD card speed issue nor the wifi issue (I get solid 3.5MB/sec download from cloud).
Just tried to copy the same file on my windows tablet and I can do solid 7-8MB/sec transfer so it isn't the source speed either.
I just can't pinpoint what the issue may be. I can swear that the speed was just fine prior to Nougat upgrade.
BTW, when I say "painfully slow", it is like 2-300KB/s speed.
I just read that same thing was happening with Galaxy Note 7 as well. Very slow access to SMB/CIFS.
I enabled FTP access to my NAS and it is now transferring at around 9MB/sec.
I wonder why the SMB/CIFS access is slow.

why am I only getting 580kb/sec on my ftp transfers? I'm using mocha ftp server and on the pc I'm using Flashfxp...have I reached the microSD speed limit? Also, opera only gets around the same speed when using dsl reports with wifi.. pocket ie gets like 1400-1500kb.. and I've already messed with the wifi power settings..can someone help
I'd also like to add that when I use the usb connection and disable wifi I'm still able to ftp using active sync's IP...and still get around 500 BOTH ways.. I could swear that when I had a microSD card reader that I could xfer quicker, so I'm leaning against a read/write speed problem...

seems not all ftp clients are created equal
So I just recently bought the Thrive not too long ago but I was really looking foward to accessing my phone from the tablet, unfortunately once i connect the phone through usb and enable file sharing the tablet just can't seem to discover the phone.
Has anyone gotten around this?
Have you tried Bluetooth?
That actually did work but keeps crashing the tablet, i'm pretty sure i'd be able to access the files through usb if i had an app that would simply give me the option to access the right directory.
I'm able to browse files fine through bluetooth but it's whem i transfer files that it crashes.
I'm using ES File Explorer to try this.
Try using WiFi File Explorer Pro. I have transferred 700 mb files between my Thrive and EVO 3D at Very Fast speeds! Works with zero problems.

Wow, I had given up on a solution, this solved everything!
Thank you so much!
Hi,
i cannot get over 4 MB/s (32 MBits) with my N10, I tried to copy from windows share and windows FTP on my local 1 Gbit network over 5 GHz (300Mbps connected) Wifi. When I do the same with 2 laptops I get 20+ MB/s.
I used total commander and ES file explorer...
Has anyone tested this ?
Seems fine here, on my 5ghz network. I normally transfer movies this way. Though I don't check the actual speed, I don't think it is lower than 4 MB/s. Sometimes I even 'stream' full movies just by opening the file on the network through ES File Explorer. Even with really high bitrate videos it does not stutter.
I would suggest changing the client. Try Astro or Solid Explorer.

Xender appears to be included in the marshmallow stock rom....after playing with it a bit and using it to transfer some TWRP backups from my phone to my pc it appears to work really well. Was curious what results others were getting?
I uninstalled it as I use OTG to get things on and off my phone to my pc. I think I might give it a shot if it's faster.
Xender works ok, I've been using AirDroid for a while with no issues, simple to use.
Works great for me. I can easily transfer files from my Chromebook and tablet. Fast speeds for me as well.
SMB file transfer is really slow after the upgrade.
All other wifi/lan transfers are fine. (FTP/HTTP/speed test/etc)
I am trying to copy files from my home NAS server using SMB/CIFS and it is painfully slow (2-300KB/s) where as FTP transfer from same NAS server is about 9MB/s. (Using ES file explorer as well as Total commander)
There was a same complaint from users of Note 7 but it went away due to the massive recall without getting resolved.
I have T-mobile version of the S7 Edge. Can someone with different S7 edge (U version?) that can test out SMB transfers and confirm whether your transfer speed is ok?
Is there somewhere that I can complain about this bug/issue? (official Samsung forum?)
Thank you.
You already posted that in the T-Mobile section...
Can't confirm that for ES.
Over there you wrote you've a 802.11g WiFi (54 MBit/s). With that you get at best around 6 MB/s and definitely not 9 MB/s.
Hi, I've got the same problem with you, have you resolved it?
After upgrading to nougat, the smb speed is only 500KB/s, before upgrading it's around 2MB/s though.
I have the same problem on my S8. No speed at all on SMB/CIFS. My S4 get 10 times faster speeds with same configurations. same nas, router, apps, etc.
It's not only with ES, also with all others apps I tried.

Hello,
I have the same problem.
According to this thread, the error also occurs on the S8:
https://us.community.samsung.com/t5...cpage/board-id/GalaxyS/thread-id/20261/page/2
Let's hope that Samsung fixes this with Android 8. Currently, I am staying with Android 6 due to this issue.
By the way, which file system are you using on your NAS? I am using XFS. Has anyone tried another file system on the NAS (for example EXT3)? I ask because I have been told that the bug occurs due to the XFS file system.
Best regards
