VPN file access and Transfer issue

[Guest GNET_NY]

Anyone know why a Winxp laptop would take an extremely long time to copy

large image files over a VPN network link? i.e. broadband connection, 5 meg

file, 15 minutes? the same thing happens when connecting to a VPN network

outlook.pst file for mail. It could take up to 25 minutes to send and receive

mail in outlook 2007.

Every other request takes normal time. Even after the Mfgr. (Dell) replaced

the processor and memory.

- What's "normal" time? How much data do you transfer? Which direction?

- What is your broadband upload/download speed?

- Have tried running some tests with a non-VPN connection, e.g. by uploading

some files to an FTP or Internet file storage site?
