Slow PC-to-Tivo, Fast Tivo-to-Tivo Transfers

[pdc]

Here's a problem that's currently stumping me. When I try to transfer video files from my PC to my wirelessly connected Tivo, the transfer rate is unbearably slow. The wireless G connection status is "good" to "fair", but it take hours to transfer minutes of video. I've tried transferring from two different PC's using a variety of methods (Tivo Desktop, Galleon, pyTivo) all with the same results. Here's the kicker: if I transfer shows from my other networked Tivo (hardwired), they transfer with no problem, faster than real time. The hardwired Tivo is running 8.3 and the wireless one still at the previous software.

This would imply that there's no problem with the wireless connection, but a problem with the PC interaction. I have firewalls turned off to make sure that it's not a port-related issue, but is there some thing else that I'm missing? I'm running XP and Vista on the PC's, with no difference in transfer speeds between them. Any ideas?

Have you tried changing to a different channel on your router config setup

I have tried different channels, but the fact that it's transferring from the hardwired tivo to the wireless tivo without any problems leads me to believe that the network is not the issue. The PC's are also hardwired into the same router, so I would expect them to transfer at the same rate as the wired tivo does.

I have also noticed a slow down on my PC to tivo wireless....since the 8.3 upgrade. Previously i had transfered a 90 minute movie in less that 30 minutes...last night it took over 2 hours to get the same amount of movie...

I also have this issue - all of my devices are Wireless G. Both Tivos have the Tivo Wireless G adapter. Transfer from Tivo to Tivo is fast. Transfer from Tivo to PC (or Mac) is sloooww.
