Unless you're willing to wire up for gigabit ethernet and a totally
dedicated server, best thing to do is pull the files over to a local
drive, edit, than push them back to the server. That also has the
bonus of always leaving a backup copy of the original file on the
server.

I place my *ist-DS's image files on a network file server at home

a full duplex 100BaseT NIC. But our notebooks from which we do all
our work are connected wirelessly with 802.11g wifi cards (56Mbps).
We have ourselves a bottleneck, paarticularly when we're batch
resizing to post online.
I'm wondering if anyone here has used anything faster than 56Mbps
wifi cards (standard 802.11g). I'm not sure I'm all that anxious
to upgrade my router and two wifi cards, but if I can open up that
network bottleneck significantly I'll consider it. Any
recommendations?
