Mac Forum / Applications / Other MS Products / November 2006File transfer sssllllooooowwwwwwwww
Hi. I'm using Messenger 6.0.1, and I am in a small lan with 5 computers, 2 PCs 3 Macs, and file transfer between any of them is extremely slow. Also if I send files to people outside the lan. I have no firewall, proxy or NAT. Each computer has its own IP, using the latest Messenger version. PCs with its antivirus updated, as well as the windows security updates. So, how can I speed up the transfers? Or is it this slow because the "encryption" that Messenger 6.0.1 has built in? Thnx > Hi.

How long does it take to transfer a 1MB file between two computers in your network? Does your network use a Corporate sever (internal server) or are you using the Windows Live server? bill  SignatureWilliam M. Smith (Microsoft Interop MVP - Mac/Windows) Hi, Well, lets say I am using only personal accounts, it is a home network with a ADSL connection of 2048/1024kbps. And a 1mb file would be transferred from 2 computers in around 7 minutes. I am talking mac to pc or mac to mac or pc to mac. Tthere is no problems between pcs.

I have all the recommended ports open on my mac firewall and 3rd-party software firewall. Something is definitely wrong with this latest release of MSN!! I have the same problem here. I have opened all ports for MSN and even tried it without NAT and firewall, but file transfer is still around 1kb/s. Activity Monitor shows short peaks (faster transfer rate) in network transfer, but overall transfer rate is very low. PC and Messenger in the same subnet works without problems.

PC and Messenger in the >same subnet works without problems. Yep, same problem Here. Version 6.0.1, but, the most important, on the same Mac, Mercury Messenger and iChat, works fine, very fast. My download/upload is 3mbit/896, but in messenger is never faster than 5-6 kb/sec. Please help... |
