Yes. The router works fine. Before I upgrade my computer with a new MB &
processor (AMD Duron 1.6 GHz that blows my Athlon 1.4 out of the water), I
had only XP on the computer and PCAnywhere (with encryption turned on).
That worked perfectly. File transfers were slightly slower than with plain
old ftp, but I chalked that up to encryption on both ends.
I want to make the switch to Linux, but for now have to keep XP in order to
play 2 of my online games (There (http://www.there.com) and Earth & Beyond).
It is funny. There runs exclusively on Linux servers, but for now they
only have a Windows client. I can understand their reasoning, though. With
90% of the desktop computers running a WindowsOS, as an online
game/community startup, you want the broadest base possible.
But I use Lindows exclusively for my web surfing, e-mailing, some games, et
cetera.

I don't think SSH should be the problem because I use scp for transfers
between my Linux machines and the performance is excellent. There was one
machine that inexplicably took about a minute to connect. After I fixed some
network parameters that problem went away.

I assume your router worked OK for Windows-to-Windows transfers?
