New switch added now embed server can't be accessed

just for reference ill use the standard IP network 192.168.1.0/24.  my EMBY server is on 10 and the synology server with all my media is on 20.

this is  a deal breaker and I don't care if its has anything to do with the Microsoft update (I highly doubt it).

Basically the server I have emby running on 10 can't read the folder on server with all the movies on it (20). This is new I have used emby for a long time. The WINDOWS server running emby can see locate the synology server with the files but just hangs whenever trying to access the folder. Its not a sinology problem there have been no updates. Now strangely if I sign in with wifi with 10 the problem goes away. Makes me think it has something to do with a second switch that I promise was added to my network correctly. Using all manner of programs from fing to net map (zen map for you GUI lovers) the whole network is tip top. Pinging, tracert, traceroute, everything is fine and working perfectly. The new switch was added for it's 8 10gb ports. both switches are netgear and are linked via LACP port aggregation so a 4gb pipe can be established between the two and my 10gb NICs aren't totally useless on my workstation.

Look, I do this for a living and have never run into this before but as it started closely after adding the second switch am nice than willing to admit this is my fault if someone can show me how.(and please in case your wondering with I used port aggregation instead of the 10g fiber cable, something about the new 10gb switch is incompatible with my cable(I think I know what it is so please don't focus on that) There are no VLANS, lets see any other pertinent info. Oh make a better Synology APP that would solve all these problems although everything you learn is money In this buss so maybe this is a good thing I just ask you refrain from asking me questions you would ask grandma.  Please help asap or I have to find another solution and will be wanting my "donation" to this free and open source service back.

Thank you for your time I promise I'm not a dick I'm just frustrated

Hi, what do you mean by better Synology app? If you're running the server on Windows, then there is no app on Synology, correct?

 

Go to Emby library setup and check the folder paths that you have added. Using Windows explorer are you able to access those same library paths?
