Ive got a SOHO network with everything running into a linksys router, and it works great. But I transfer a lot of big files back and forth between two specific computers, and I want to speed up transfers a bit. One computer has dual gigabit nics on a pci-e interface. the other one has a 10/100 built in and a pci-x gigabit card plugged into a regular pci slot. I made a crossover plugged it up and ran some speed tests. the 100 link through the router got about 8 mb a sec and the 1000 link did about 16 mb a sec. but every time I try to transfer a file the computer sends it over the the 100 connection. I tried bridgeing the connections but the transfer speed went down to about 13 mb a sec. Is there a better way to set this up? also what is limiting my transfer speed? My guess is the pci-x card being forced down to pci speeds but im not sure.
