Transfer speed sloooooooow

Then you have maaaajor problems somewhere if you can only get 4Mb/sec via wired…

Should be more like 50-100x faster.

The biggest part of the puzzle is the “Warning” you’re getting.

Windows *never* gives that kind of warning simply from copying files. 

My first guess is it may be related to a WebDAV issue.

Try browsing the WebDAV FAQ to see if that applies.

Even using WebDAV, though, that error shouldn’t be happening.
