GIGABIT network speeds

[roryson]

On my home network i have a GIGABIT wireless "N" router and a GIGABIT SWITCH. in my room i have the SWITCH which connects my PC, WDTV LIVE HUB and my HTPC. My PC and HTPC are running GIGABIT PCI Cards and my WDTV LIVE HUB has onboard GIGABIT. i cant get files to transfer between these devices over 14MB/s. i also just replaced my cat5 cables with cat6. Any ideas people.. Thankx in advance..

That aint good, thats not much more than you would expect through a 100mb network.. Is this max transfer speed what you see between PC and HTPC? Is it definately a gigabit switch? Is it a crappy cheapo switch? Is there a break in one of your cables twisted pairs making it fall back to 100mb?

Right, transfer speeds to and from my PC, NAS and HTPC are around 35MB but transfer speeds to and from my WDTV LIVE HUB are around 15MB. Any ideas people..??
