How many albums do you have?

Does your ReadyNAS have a fixed IP address or do you use DHCP and turn
it on/off often?

1. Regarding the "speed" issue. This is most likely due to the
ReadyNAS. ReadyNAS is simply pretty slow as an SC server. iPeng needs
to retrieve the album and artist data from the server to work and that
can take time if you have a big library.
As soon as that library is synced with iPeng (you will now it is
finished when the album artwork on the "Albums" browse page starts
loading) it should start to be faster.
iPeng will cache your data so you will only have to re-load it whenever
you change your library (e.g. by adding albums).

Also: Please open the SqueezeCenter Web interface, go to Settings and
there check for "Advanced->Performance->Artwork resampling" and use the
faster setting.
ReadyNAS is very slow doing the artwork resampling so the whole server
will be less performant while it prepares the artwork for iPeng.

2. iPeng doesn't find the server: That will typically happen when iPeng
cannot reach your server on port 3483. However, this is a bit unlikely
if it's only sometimes. If you have changing IP addresses, please try
to enable (in iPeng) "Settings->Forget last server", this should fix
that.
