I have a desktop and a laptop, both of which run Windows 7. I have a Motorola SBG6580. My desktop is plugged into it via an ethernet cable, my laptop communicates via 802.11n wifi. I have roughly 90GB worth of data that I want to transfer from my laptop to my desktop. I have the folder shared on the laptop but when I try to copy files it is SLOW. 140 - 200 kb/s -ish.
I did have the network over a homegroup, but I read elsewhere that might be where my problem is. I exited the homegroup on both computers and just have the folder shared. Any ideas?
Also, when my son and his friend play each other in Garry's Mod (the only time a game gets played over a LAN on wifi) the ping is something horrible, 400-ish.
I'm frustrated.
