Very SLOW date tranfer to QNAP TS-453-PRO

Hello to everyone on the forum, and thank you, also on behalf of the other users, for all the unconventional help you provide!

For a long time, 3 or 4 years in fact! I've been having a problem transferring data from any Windows PC to my QNAP 453 PRO NAS with RAID6 (four 2TB WDRED disks). Basically, when I try to copy or move files from my PC to the NAS, it takes a very long time, even hours. The strange thing is that most of the time the data transfer stops, it says "transfer speed 0 kbps" and then restarts when it decides, either slowly or quickly, randomly, and it happens whether I select several small files or just a few large ones, such as ISOs.

My PC is a 12th-generation Intel Core i7, with 32 GB of RAM—it's old but still good—and the NAS also has 8 GB of RAM. The network cards are the original 1 GB ones.

I don't know what to do. Sometimes the 4 GB transfer stops and then restarts when it wants to.

If anyone has any suggestions, I'd be grateful!

Obviously, I'm connected via cable 3 meters from the NAS, with a Ubiquiti switch and a TIM Gigabit router. Everything is updated to the latest versions of their respective systems. I now have Windows 11, but the problem was also with Windows 7 and Windows 8. 10....

Thank you all so much!
