Hey everyone!
I have two Vista Ultimate computers attached to one network with regular ethernet LAN cables. Each computer has a lot of video files on them that I want to be able to open on either. The network is VERY fast so I know this isn't the problem.
I'm not 100% sure how to do network settings in Vista, but I have disabled UAC, windows firewall, and enabled public file sharing without passwords on both computers. They both have identical connection speeds
So on computer1, I can go into network and sharing and find computer2 and open any shared video file and it will play perfect quality in less than 5 seconds. It can also download any file on computer2 at 10MB/s
On computer2, I can go into network and sharing and its MUCH slower, but I can find computer1, and it takes a while to open each folder. It takes about 4 mins to start even playing the video, and then will play about 1 second before stopping and loading again. It downloads any file on computer1 at about 10kb/s. KB, not MB
something is up but im not sure how to fix it... any ideas?
