stoo2000 Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 That could work, obviously quickest way would be a wired link to their network, then copy + paste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stoo2000 Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 Wireless networks are not really that efficient at transferring large files, unless of course you are using the new Wireless N standard (not draft) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
