I finally have Vista Home Premium 32 running lean and smooth, except for the bleeding network transfers.
Basically they are slow, painfully slow. I have tried over a wired LAN, faster but still very slow, wireless, really slow at around 80 -90 KB/s. LOL I have even tried ad-hoc wireless. All involved machines have excellent signal strength and internet downloads etc are full speed.
These problems are when I send from my PC to another PC, directly into their shared folders. Interestingly it does not happen if I put it into my public folder and they copy from me, nice fast speeds.
I believe it is Vista as this is the only machine with Vista. My neighbour also has similar issues sending from Vista to XP machines, and he also has the same solution, use the XP machines to copy from the Vista machine.
I can live with this for now, but it really is becoming irritating that I have to keep running to different machines just to copy stuff, when before I just sent it to them.
P.S. have tried an Ad-Hoc network with another Vista machine, same issues.
Is this a known problem? If so I assume a fix is at the very least being looked into?

I have heard it is a known problem with wireless drivers and it is being worked.

I haven’t tried this but I’m told it works and you have nothing to lose. Go to Control Panel, Network & Sharing Center, Manage Network Connections in the left pane and right-click Wireless Connection, Properties. Now untick the IPv6 box. If it makes no difference or causes problems it is completely reversible by ticking the box.

Will try. I vaguely remember a while back that IPv6 caused me some kind of problem on XP Pro. Will try and report back.
Is IPv6 actually required at the moment?

Made no difference, but thanks for the suggestion. I remember now, a previous ISP would not, for some reason, connect properly with IPv6 enabled.

IPv6 is still not used on the internet, the only place it could be of use at the time is on an local area network.
