It is such a fake trasfer rate, i have 48 kB/s transfer and it gave me 28 kB/s to my other computer on cable line. Why show the speed if it isn't even right?
Anyone else had these problems?

peak times? maybe something else uploading from your connected computers, cuz when its a shared line, bandwidth and speed are distributed evenly sometimes.. Very Happy

does aim send client to client or does it buffer the file over the aim servers? in that case the 38kB would be your internet upload... Question Question Question

^ As far as I know, the files are sent through the AIM servers...thats why the upload speeds are so slow.
