The changes affect the way Vista talks to other other computers, both on the
local network and on the Internet. The changes essentially turn off the
advanced networking features in Vista. Some network hardware doesn't work
properly with these advanced features and causes problems which can include
the slowdown you are seeing. If the changes don't fix the problem the
article also tells you how to reverse them. Make the changes, reboot, see if
the problem is any better. If it's not reverse the changes and reboot once
again.

But aren't your changes for Internet speed. My Internet speed is fine.
It
is the file transfer from computer to computer.

Part of the problem is the USB wireless adapters. You are being hit with
two
things that are slow - USB and wireless. That said the transfer should
still
be much faster that what you are experiencing. Try these changes:

I have been struggling for months now with slow file transfer (Vista
Home
Premium SP1 to Vista Home Premium SP1). Currently, I am trying to
transfer a
2.95 GB file. The last ten minutes have been met with "Calculating
Time
Remaining". If the trend holds once the calculation is done it will
tell
me
that the transfer will take around 15 hours. I stand corrected it is
1
Day
and 15 hours.

Remote Differential Compression is off. Hardware is Wireless N Router
(Dlink) and USB Wireless G USB adapters on both computers. Wireless
connection is three bars on one PC and five on the other PC.
