Instead, I decided it would be far more productive to tell you that I don't see how Charles Deweese can build a workable policy around wishful thinking draped over a morass of confusion (and also, as we'll see below, historical illiteracy), then impose it willy-nilly on a population by force. What I mean to say is that what I have been writing up to this point is not what I initially intended to write - but I'm emotionally drained and must give the world the truth. As a note of explanation for other readers of this dire message, Charles Deweese's "strategic initiatives" have been to send throngs of Deweese bots to come here and sully the opposition's reputation. I'm one of the victims of your shameless privacy invading schemes. Charles Deweese, allow me to introduce myself. I am here today to show the world just what Charles Deweese really is. I should've done more troubleshooting on my own before posting, but hopefully this thread will help someone else.Hello all, I hope you are doing well.
In case you're wondering why I have two switches, well, at one time I had several people living with me. What perplexes me is that this seemed to transpire after I installed a bigger HDD in my Xbox. Strangely, if I were to bypass router #1 altogether, my upload speed drops by about half (maybe a nice networking guru can explain to me why that is).
#FLASHFXP SLOW TRANSFER PC#
So now my PC connects to the Xbox through the router. I unplugged my PC from switch #1 and plugged it directly into an open port on the router. ROUTER > 4-PORT SWITCH #1 > 4-PORT SWITCH #2 > XBOX I have one 4-port switch that connects to my router and another one next to my entertainment system that piggybacks off it. Let me explain my setup in case someone else has the same issues. I now upload at a consistent rate of 10MB/s. Anyway, all I had to do to fix my problem was unplug my PC from my first switch and plug it directly into the router.
#FLASHFXP SLOW TRANSFER SOFTWARE#
My network configuration hasn't changed in many years, but I've upgraded both my PC and Xbox several times, so that lead to believe it was more a software issue. I apologize, but I neglected to mention that I had two 10/100 switches between my router and Xbox - I thought they were innocuous. I don't have another PC to try it from.Īny ideas what could be causing my problem? Thanks in advance. Unfortunately, it doesn't report the speed.
#FLASHFXP SLOW TRANSFER WINDOWS#
I also discovered that when I FTP files to my Xbox using Windows Explorer in Windows Vista, it seems to take just as long. I've made sure passive mode was disabled in the site manager and I also tried adjusting the TCP/IP buffer size to no avail. The whole process repeats itself until the file finishes, and it doesn't always finish, sometimes it will fail at different points in the transfer. For example, it might start out at 1.0MB/s and slowly increase until it gets to around the 2MB mark, then it will slowly work its way down to 0.0KB/s - or around 1MB/s - and then back up again.
What happens is this: When I attempt to transfer a large file (typically >500MB) to my Xbox the transfer speed will constantly fluctuate between 0.0KB/s and ~2.0MB/s. I'm using the latest version of FlashFXP, my dashboard is XBMC (latest T3ch build), and my Xbox is connected to my PC through my Apple Airport Extreme router. I hope someone will be able to help me solve my long-standing issue with transferring files to my Xbox.įirst, some background info.
