Greetings,

Ok. I ran some further tests on this. Actually i transferred the 4gb file 5 times :-) Anyway, i believe i have found the cause of this speed dropping.

NAV is not the problem. Speed is not affected by the scanner - at least not for me.

On the client pc (laptop) i've been using "Webroot SpySweeper". Now such a program doesn't really ring any alarm bells by me cause i've been using sweepers for a long time and never seen it affect transfer speeds. Though i believe it's the case here. As soon as i closed the program the droppings stopped and the entire transfer ran at about 11mb/sec.

So...maybe a factor that i should have mentioned. Sorry, but i really did not think it could affect anything - and i also forgot i had it installed :-)

Maybe some of the other users having this problem is running this sweeper aswell?
