Getting only 1 mb/s on wired lan

I noticed when uploading some files via FTP (using FlashFXP) from my computer to computer I was only getting 1 mb/s. So I asked my buddy about his computer which is on the same lan, and he is uploading at 10 mb/s.

It seems like it should be something simple to fix, but I'm not getting it...

any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!
 
on 100 megabit lan (100 Base-T) throughput speeds of 10 MBs are the norm.

Notice the big "B" there, that means megaBYTES. If one says 10 Mbs, that is 10 megaBIT. Bit difference.

So with that said the normal cause for performance problems are:
1) poor or homemade cabling
2) speed/duplex mistmatch - basically always leave the network card and switch to autodetect speed and duplex. otherwise a 100 Mbs network is reduced to about 1 Mbs.
 
For the good of All. :heart:

1 Byte = 8bits (Byte is Capital B, bit is underscore b):thumbsup:

Windows based Network optimized for 100Mb/sec.

Actual Yield of File transfer would be 60-80Mb/sec.

Since 8bits = 1Byte. Actual File Transfer in Bytes should be 7 -10 MB/sec.

If the Network is a 10Mb/sec. every number above should be divided by 10.

If your numbers are much lower:thumbsdown: look at the solutions in Spidey?s post above.:beer:
