My LAN is having problems, mainly on my PC. I am linked up to a Netgear ASDL Firewall Router DG834. Alot of files I wish to transfer onto my computer are on other computers on the LAN, I can acess and move the files but the speed seems to be around 30Kbs LAN, I have a 10MB network line and card, any idea?

how good are all the computers? What IP are you using to access each PC?

30k/second doesn't seem to unreasonable for a 10MB cable and card (are you sure the they're only 10 and not 10/100, though? They'd have to be pretty old to only be 10). The cable and card can support 10MB/sec, but that doesn't mean you get anywhere near that throughput, due to a myriad of factors.
