Question:

I have a Firewire network cable between my desktop running XP Pro and my Notebook running XP Home both have SP2.

The network is connected and shows 400mbs and files transfer each way but transfers extremely slow.

Possible solution:

I have seen that an incompatible firewall can create this type of behavior. Try uninstalling your firewall, test the network transfer rate and if all is well, install a different firewall to your network.
