I'm kinda having the same issue besides I'm not using wireless... I am syncing 2 Nas devices over wired LAN (freenas and qnap). I'm getting the double arrow icons. The transfer speed is a constant 3MB/s When copying a file directly from nasshare to nasshare, the speed is 70MB/s which is closer to my Gigabyte lan connection. This is when scp'ing one file to the other device using putty, so no intermediaries.

Have been struggling a bit with FreeNas and btsync. Now that it all works without the need for a jail (I think), here are my findings. I assume a volume has been set up on the FreeNas. create a user 'btsync' with a homedir accessible for writing after the reboot. log on to FreeNas using ssh (putty or shell) with the root user. enable write access on the OS. mount -uw / based on http://forums.freena...-install.12722/ I adapted a btsync_install.sh script : #!/bin/sh # Installs Bittorrent Sync (btsync) under a FreeNAS jail # based on http://forums.freenas.org/threads/bittorrent-sync-install.12722/ # 2013-08-20 # edited a bit by tim@chaubet.be on 2013-09-05 cd /tmp echo -n "Would you like to install Bittorrent Sync (y/n)?

Has this been resolved ? This would render btsync useless on FreeNas ...

Any progress on adding proxy support, lads ? This would make your app a total dropboxkiller.
