Extreamly slow copy from XP shares!

Guest

Hi there.

How can I fix this very annoying problem?
Copying from files from my XP computer is SLOWER than downloading stuff via
my ADSL2+ 8Mbit line!

I'm using 802.11n on my Vista laptop, connected to a dedicated AP running
only N mode, and the other comp is connected via 802.11g, both comps display
"Excellent" in connections....
But it can't be my WiFi that's not working, since DL from the Internet is
faster!?!

I was just downloading some torrents with 800-900KB/sec speed, current speed
of XP->Vista file copy is 510 KB/sec! :-(

How do I fix this ? Uninstall vista ? :p
