I'm transferring 100+ GB of files from one computer with a gigabit ethernet adapter to another with a gigabit ethernet adapter, through wire. HDDs are SATA 3GB/s. I highly doubt the issue is either machine.

Transfer rates are unfortunately, painfully, 10 MB/s.

Anyone know what's wrong? I suspect DDWRT. I'm running v18777 on a WNDR3700v1 unit.

its very possible that it could be the machines, and you have checked their adapter properties to make sure everything is set correctly?

I highly doubt its dd-wrt.. especially because you are saying you're doing the transfers wire to wire. With wire to wire, you are using the switch, which should be full throughput because the switch is connected together, and will function regardless of whether dd-wrt is on there or not. I even use a 'bricked' router here for a switch, the unit is bricked (no working firmware on it), but still gets power, thus the switch still works, at full speed even. Switches are passthrough's (un-managed) unless you specify in the firmware for it to manage, then it changes.

Interesting; I didn't know you could do that with a "bricked" router. I will confirm the drivers/adapters are configured properly and will report back. One is a new machine with dual gigabit adapters; could be something there.
