Is it in network mode (desktop runs UHD code) or embedded mode (desktop -> SSH to the N310 embedded OS -> UHD code)? If it this in network mode, then it can't work. 1 channel at 41 Msps is almost 1.3 Gbps (41 * 16 * 2) transfer rate over your 1GbE interface. Furthermore, by specifying the rx and tx rate, you start the benchmark in full-duplex (i.e Tx + Rx), doubling the required transfer rate. Either way, your network is not capable of handling that transfer rate, you need to setup a 10GbE network. I don't know the limitation of the N310 embedded ARM to have an opinion in embedded mode.
