    Hi Guys/Gals.

    I have a Netgear router connected to my main pc and a
    wireless card in the 2nd pc in the next room. I have set
    it up ok and it seams to be working just fine internet
    wise and no dropped connections beteween the 2 computers.
    The problem i have is that when i transfer files beteween
    the 2 computers it seems to take forever. For instance a
    290mb file takes 15-20 minutes to transfer. Is this
    normal?, and if not could you maybe give me some advice
    on what steps i can take to speed up the transfer process.

    Many Thanks

    Mark.

    PS feel free to contact me via msn if you wish.
