Windows 10: Unable to COnnect to local NAS via WIndows 11

CommunityI have a 10 TB NAS that my wife and I back up our files. I recently purchased a second external drive as a second backup Backup of my Backup. I first went into my network setting and enables all file sharing access I then connected my Synology NAS via an RJ34 cable and booted everything up and my Lenovo T14 Gen 4 Windows 11 did recognize the NASYou can see the "SYNOLOGY_NAS."

File Transfer Speed from Windows 11 to Synology NAS is VERY SLOW vs. Windows 10

I have a new Windows 11 PC and I'm noticing that the file sharing to my Synology NAS is very slow vs when I transferred files from my older Windows 10 PC.

File Transfer Speeds:

• Windows 11 to NAS (DS1520+) = 11.5 MB/s
  
• Windows 11 to Windows 10 = 112 MB/s (much faster)
  
• File size = 30GB
  

Note:

• Windows PCs and NAS are all Ethernet connected on 1GB home network.
  
• Running: Windows 11 Pro 23H2
  
• Running: DSM 7.2.1-69057 Update 5
  

Any suggestions on how to speed this up would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
