Default Fix for slow CIFS/SMB network performance?

Will there be a fix for this major problem?
I have had to resort to burning 600MBs to a CDR because Vista was only
achieving 400kb/sec on a 100mbit ethernet connection to a Windows 2000
Server SP4 DC. That's pretty poor really.

Robocopy was no different to Explorer.

I have IPv6 disabled via the registry if it makes any difference.

You may want to turning off auto-tuning on the Vista. This post may help.

Is this the auto-tuning /feature/ that was supposed to mean we would no
longer need to mess around with DrTCP in order to realise the full potential
of our broadband connections?

I will try disabling this new feature (another) and see how it goes.

thanks.
