About this tag
Discussions tagged with 'windows file transfer' on WindowsForum.com focus on improving transfer speeds between networks, particularly when using VPNs like SSTP or Hamachi. Users compare local LAN speeds (e.g., 48-50 MB/s) to slower remote transfers (e.g., 2.2 MB/s) and seek methods to optimize throughput. Common themes include VPN protocol selection, network configuration, and achieving speeds closer to local performance. The tag covers practical troubleshooting for Windows-based file transfers over VPNs, with an emphasis on speed bottlenecks and solutions.
