230kB/sec Vista transfer rates on Gigabit network.

[Guest]

Can someone please explain to me why I'm getting network transfers from a new
vista ultimate system to a Windows 2003 server at 230kB/sec (yes, that's
kiloBytes per second). On my other systems (Mac OSX, Suse Linux 10.2, 2003
server) I get around 20MB/sec. I have several VMWARE images to transfer and
I'm getting estimates of 2-3 days for a single image (16GB)!! I ran some lan
testing tools and I consistently get 400Mbps between the other systems. When
I run the tool with the vista system as the target I got good transfers as
well, but when I swap it around with Vista as the server, I get 230Kbps max.
I opened a samba connection from my linux system to the vista system to copy
over the images and guess what I get -- 230Kb/sec. I swapped out the 3com
gigabit switch with a Cisco 100Mbps switch and I get the same results. The
cable is cat 5e but I'll swap that out later today and see if that does
anything. I tried the second onboard NIC with the same results. I installed
the hotfix Microsoft sent me and the netsh disable command--nothing. Am I
losing my mind here or is there something very wrong with Vista's networking?

I am having the same trouble any time i try and use vista with any kind of
wireless
or lan type connection. My roommates get a consistent 8mps of bandwidth on
the lan and I get less than 100kbps. I changed the netsch, removed av,
disabled the firewalls. no luck. changed the mtu. My roommates with mac and
lynux have a great time. I cant get vista to do more than crawl.
