I’ve just got a Western Digital My Book Live network drive. It was taking forever copying files over. I was getting a copy speed of only around 50kbs. Which is strange as my PC connects to the Superhub via Ethernet cable.
I then connected via a Wi-Fi dongle I now get 34Mbs.

Shouldn't using the 1Gb Ethernet connection have been Faster.
