Why is my file transfering so slow???
Both me and the one I'm transferring to/from have the
right setup opened ports 6891-6900 1503 and enabled UpnP
etc. etc.
I use messenger 6.2

Greetings Frank,

You'll see a slow transfer rate when the file is sending through the Messenger server when a
direct connection can't be established.

When you say you've enabled UPnP, do you mean you turned it on in Windows? If so, you'll
still need to have UPnP engaged in your router (assuming that's what we're referring to).
