Daver99 You can toggle the compression settings within LogMeIn by going to Preferences and then to the Advanced Settings tab. By default, 'Best' will be selected, but there may be file transfer speed improvements seen by switching to a different compression setting.

Hi Ash, I did already set it to fast, but no practical change has been seen. I can't imagine why the logmein cloud servers are sending out at roughly 8kbytes per second.
