You didn't bother telling us what makes you think it's slow. What tests have you done? What's your average transfer rate? How long does it take to transfer how much data? Chances are it just seems slow because you're transferring a lot of data on a 100 Mbps network infrastructure. Hero's reply was VERY valid. Upgrading your network to a 1000 Mbps infrastructure would allow you to transfer large amounts of data faster. You do realize of couse that backing up large chunks of data takes time. You must also realize, transferring big data files across a 100 Mbps network also takes time.

Thanks, Curt_R. I'm starting to not want to come here anymore to help people because of this kind of thing. Nothing kills your motivation to help others more efficiently than when said people insult you when you try to do so. Whatever happened to thanking someone for attempting to help even if they didn't tell you what you wanted to hear? Heck, I'd settle for the person just saying nothing... "im looking for something to fix this issue" Would gigabit equipment fix this issue? Very good chance it would! TECH-NO-LOGICAL ROMANCE! http://www.homestarrunner.com/tgs12.html

it would fix the issue no doubt but if you would read the my first post... "is there any "tweaks" that could speed up file transer to a mapped drive?" this is my question a simple i dunno any tweaks or no reply at all would be fine but i hate when people change my question around this doesnt help at all...

Do you not understand that you are the one asking of other people for help? No one has to help you. Anyone who posts anything that is an attempt to resolve this no matter if you like the advice or not is doing you the favor. All you're doing is discouraging people from helping others in this forum. Go google: heropsycho site:computing.net Needless to say I'm pretty active here helping people out. Think about that the next time you go off on someone trying to help, even if you don't like what advice you're given. TECH-NO-LOGICAL ROMANCE! http://www.homestarrunner.com/tgs12.html

I hear you Hero......it can be frustrating. Offer a perfectly good solution and have someone sniff and say, "That's not what I asked you!" I just ignore it because when the odd person does reply with a "thanks a lot, that worked" it makes it all worthwhile. Listen NeoSpider. We're professionals who donate our time and effort towards helping others on this site. If you don't like the reply, by all means GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. But in the mean time, stick your smarmy attitude where it will do everyone else in the world the most good. I suspect you know where I mean. Now this is the last response you will get from me so I'm going to use simple words and short sentences so you can understand...... There are no "tweaks" to increase your network bandwidth. If there had been, we would have told you what reg hacks to apply. Is that clear enough for you? So, instead of offering you half measures or useless reg hacks/tweaks, we answered you with our professional opinions as to how to best increase your bandwidth. I notice you never answered my questions from my last post yet.....too busy mouthing off. Too bad, because in all honesty, I suspect your data transfer rates are just fine.........for a 100 Mbps network. If that's true, that makes Hero's original response all the more correct.
