Everyone is talking about network speeds not being where they should be but one other factor that has not been mentioned is the Hard Drive. HD speed will also effectively limit your transfer rates. If the drive can’t write the data, then it will not allow more to be received. I did a quick Google on it but could not find out what is the speed of the hard drive in these units?
Its a WD Scorpio Blue with a SATA 3 Gb/s interface.

I think you will find that the hard disk is fast enough and as has been said its the internal workings of the player that reduces the speed.
