It gave the X-Box an IP, and I went to transfer the Halo mods to it, and it was going at about 35 kb/s 60 kb/s MAXIMUM. Now, I know this isn't right. At my house, i transfer at about 6000-8000 kb/s, and it takes about 5-10 minutes for a game to transfer. Est. time on his connection was 15 hours. I had the exact same setup at my dads house, and it got about 650 kb/s. I used the same router and everything. I tried changing some network settings, and it did nothing. Does anything know something that will speed up transfer speed? I thought maybe it was a slow cable from the modem, but 10 MBPS is NOT 35 kb/s, its about 1100 kb/s. Anyone know anything about this? I have succesfully transfered to my X-Box at about 7000 kb/s, and it was hooked up in almost the same way. If you need anymore info on the setup, you can look at this picture but its geocities so theres not a lot of bandwidth. Or you can PM me. http://www.geocities.com/off_roader23/xboxpc.jpg

Well, you've got factors like:
Current load at the server, current load on that piece of cable, dropped packets, signal loss due to cabling differences between your house and his
to name a few.
