Just curious of knowing what is your fastest speed!
If anyone as a high one, could you plz post how you do it so we can all get some profit out of it!
See ya guys!

well i have allot of space on my pc hard drive(that helps a bit)
otherwise i dont know
hey i remember this post, anyway yeah i found out it was a speed reading error i was using a ftp client that was in beta. i switched about 2 weeks later to flashfxp and it was working at 8.

I believe your transfer speed more based on how ur network is setup than what dash u are using. I get about about 1.2 MBps with my 10 mbps / 100 mbps hub, but I have to setup a VPN (which is a pain to do everytime). Without a VPN, I get about 14 kbps, heh. I really all depends on the speed of ur network card, hub/router, ur cable (Cat5, Cat5e, Cat6), and the xbox network card maybe limited to a certain speed(??). Anyway thats my 2 cents.
Hows ur network setup Snick?

Maybe thats a good point, well try this.
As for me, if i try using 10 BaseT halfduplex, i get around 30 kbsec.

No something is very wrong you should be getting 4-5 times that speed. You should not have 10Base T you should have 100Base T, Full Duplex if possible.

thats impossible
a 100mbit lan can not run that fast,, its just impossible.
ok not imposible,, well yes impossible.. 5mbit per socond is on par for a 100mbit lan
i can get 8meg + with evox and i have nmo clue how they do it.
but 15 ?? i find that hard to believe.
sorry for my skepticiscm but do the math and read about tcp protocals and speed. 15 meg per second is just not happening.
i would say its a speed reading error.
and if it IS actually going that fast then the people who wrote the code need to be working for M$ or cisco or something and start making new windows protocals and nic cards that run that fast
and i only get about 6 meg with mxm

I've found that Evox tranfers faster since I use MXM dashes with animation usually.
I switch over to Evox before I start a transfer.

Windows XP ProSP1
P4-2ghz-128mb ddr
100gb hdd in 7part-40gb ALWAYS EMPTY
for transferring games.
onboard lan
So, as you see, not TOO high specs there.
And I get at leats 9-10megs a second.
I transfer back & forth with video previews & background music playing on MXM. No problems. I have touched near 13 mbps with this setup.
I connect straight from my xbox to my PC w/crossover.
I couldn't imagine constantly going at less than 4 mbps!

To the xbox from the PC I get about 7,000 KBps, with it going down drastically with a fuck ton of smaller files. From I get about 11,000 KBps. This is using the FTP server with 'highest priority' and FlashFXP, though I hate FlashFXP it beats 40 KBps (To XBOX, about the same as FlashFXP from) with AceFTP 3.0.

Nov 14 2003, 02:39 PM
The xbox has a 100Base-T NIC, and a 100Base-T network has a theoretical maximum transfer speed of 12.5 MB/sec (MB=megabytes, 100 Base-T = 100mbits/sec, 8bits=1byte), though in the real world that's rarely reached. I consistently get just over 10MB/sec both ways with MXM 0.9n6 on a switched 100Base-T network, and I'm delighted with that.
Any PC with a 100Base-T NIC should be able to get 7-10 MB/sec with a decent (Cat5, Cat5e or Cat6) crossover cable to the xbox - much less than that and there's probably something wrong with the network set-up or hardware (eg the network cable has been damaged, the RJ45 terminations are marginal, the network is running half duplex instead of full, or 10Base-T instead of 100, in which case you'd be getting 1MB/sec or worse). Any real FTP client (Internet Explorer doesn't necessarily fit that bill) should be capable of 100Base-T speeds, and MXM's server clearly is.
Lonecrow
Nov 14 2003, 02:44 PM
yeah but if i set my NIC to 100baseT full duplex, then it never wants to connect to the Xbox...
Even worse, if i try 100baseT half duplex, then i get transert rate of 10-15 kbsec...
Can it be my crossover cable?

Its likely that you have only a 10 baseT crossover cable.
Try buying a new one, all of them are at least 10/100 nowadays.

if you connect 3 xboxes with a hub you need to use straight through, not cross over.

yea, some routers have auto-pin sensing and will swap them around for you.
hubz are normally dumb as hell
switches route packets better.. but normally dont have pin sensing.... though some newer ones might.
crossovers are used normally to connect two pc's together without a hub
crossovers are used when connecting hub to hub when no uplink port is provided and pin sensing isnt a feature
straight through cables should normally be used anytime a network device connects to a hub or switch directly.

Nov 15 2003, 01:34 AM
ok so i should use normal RJ-45 Cable?
irajames1176
Nov 15 2003, 11:40 AM
Yes use a standard RJ-45 cable with the hub, a crossover cable would be for if you DIDN'T have a hub and were just going to connect your pc to your xbox directly

I used to get 500k a sec then changed network card on laptop to a 32bit cardbus card and I got approx 1,300 kbps according to Flash FXP
On my desktop to xbox I've achieved 5,000 kbps on a 35mb file, like said elsewhere small files slow right down.
Interestingly I also have a PAL xbox, 1.4 with an 80GB Hard disk.
nearly forgot the most important bit using a 100mbit crossover cable, interestingly laptop to pc on same cable is a lot faster so I don't think it's the cable.
Ok, for some reason now with mxm I only get between 3-5mb/s max...yet Xbmc always goes at like 9/10mb/s. Awesome.

If I set my NIC to 100Base/Full Duplex I get a max of 1MB/s, and that's pushing it. When I set my NIC to 100Base/Half Duplex I get 4-5 MB/s. I'm using a Cat5 cable and a d-link router.

Aug 5 2004, 10:15 AM
If you've set your PC to work at full-duplex and it goes slower than at half-duplex, that means the other end of the connection is still set to half-duplex. If you're going via a router then you need to reconfigure the router to go at full-duplex too.
a2002adam
Aug 8 2004, 12:13 AM
I think the speeds are pretty random - i generally get 3-4Mbps but i think it probably depends on which way the transfer's going (xbox to pc, pc to xbox) - i wud say that it's also down to the hdd's and their activity/spin speed but i did a load of stuff on my pc hdd and then ftp'ed a game to it and got 10Mbps (both hdd's 5200rpm). Obviously it also depends on the quality of the disk, and maybe the dash. I use Unleash X now, mainly cause MXM takes too long to load up and is way behind in features. Oh yeh, I've got a direct crossover cable connection, that helps.

Yeah I use a router. How do I configure it to work at full duplex? By "other end of the connection," do you mean the xbox? Is there an option in mxm to configure the xbox for full or half? Sorry for the n00b questions man.
pelago
Aug 11 2004, 01:05 PM
In your case, the other end of the connection is your router. Most devices auto-detect whether they should be half or full duplex, but it sounds like your router isn't doing that, so you might need to delve into its management interface.
If you are connecting directly to the Xbox, I haven't seen any way of configuring the Xbox duplex settings.

---------------------------
Are you serious? Normally I would have assumed that this is a mis-informed post and could have skipped by, save the part where you are a self-proclaimed "network engineer" and your overall tone and lack of respect for this thread.
"27mbit" to your xbox. Now I'm not sure if you meant 27 Megabit/sec to your xbox, which is sad considering the network you claim to have. Or perhaps you meant 27 Megabyte/sec, which is equally sad since this far exceeds the possible transmit rate of the xbox interface. I'll give you time to recalculate your numbers and maybe get back to us.
The part that concerns me the most is your statement that "crossover cables will cause more packet collisions between boxes than ever". The previous statement suggests that you do not understand the difference between layer 1 and layer 2 switching. Where exactly are the other packets being generated from when 2 devices are connected via crossover? A transmits to B and in turn B transmits to A. Why then would A transmit to C when there is no C on the network? And on the flip side, how would C introduce packets to either A or B without physical connectivity? I'll keep it as basic as the aforementioned. While there may be other advantages using a switch, I believe the best overall bandwidth results would be had by the use of a crossover cable.
For the sake of the thread, I get an average of about 8MB/sec to my xbox using Flashfxp, a crossover cable and MXM. When I had the xbox on the network I'd get around 6 - 7MB depending on the usage. I'm currently upgrading my network. Maybe I'll be able to hit 8MB with better equipment. Now mind you, these stats are from flashfxp, which once informed me that I was pulling 12MB/sec from my xbox and I don’t think is possible (other than theoretically) on a 100Mb switched network. The difference was that the data was being transferred to a server with SCSI drives, but I still think it was misreporting its speed.
