I strongly suspect that the hub is *not* a major bottleneck. How many other computers are on the LAN? Some things to try (if both computers are on the LAN): * Interconnect the two computers you are concerned with by a crossover cable. * Avoid other traffic through the hub by temporarily disconnecting any computers other than the two you are concerned with. In my experience, products like VNC (PCAnywhere, etc., etc., etc.) are just dogs, and very slow. Randy Kramer
