Always 'bad networkconnection'

Everytime I work with the Photos app it states 'bad networkconnection'. My Mac Studio is connected through a cable and surfing, up- & downloading works perfect. So: why always this message?

(And why doesn't 'synchronise now' doesn't change when I click on it? Does it synchronise? No way of knowing.)

Network error when I try to use Clean Up feature in Photos app Often when I try to use Clean Up in Apple Photos, I get this error: "Network Error. Clean Up could not be downloaded at this time. Please try again later." Eventually, sometimes after several hours, it works. But what's causing it and how can I get Clean Up to be more reliable? I need to use it now, not several hours from now. And yes, my network connection is just fine. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Very low upload speeds on one mac. I own 2 macs. One MacBook Pro (Catalina) and one Mac studio (Monterey). Both are connected to the same network via WiFi, but the mac studio has incredibly low upload speeds, making programs like Dropbox unusable. After an online speed test, these were the results. MacBook 100.73 Mbps upload MacBook Studio 0.64 Mbps upload I have no firewall activated. I would be very grateful if anyone can point me to a solution.

Do you have any firewall or antivirus filter enabled? You may want to check if third-party security software might be blocking the access to Apple's cloud servers.

Thanks, but no: I can reach my cloud account without any problem.
