I have the following configuration running on Vista Ultimate 64bit:
GIGABYTE GN-WP01GS IEEE 802.11b/g PCI Wireless Adapter
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16839121008
LINKSYS WRT54G rev8 IEEE 802.3/3u, IEEE 802.11b/g Wireless-G Broadband Router

I'm sure everybody knows about Vista's problems and transfer speeds through a network. SP1 was supposed to fix it, but in my experience it has not. I've done alot of tweaking already in order to get Vista to stop pinging for more wireless access points. In XP it was called Zero Config or whatever. I noticed this "lag" in online gaming and also while pinging my router with -t command so it doesn't stop pinging. So i've been running the command netsh wlan set autoconfig enabled=no interface="wireless network connection" to stop that, along with WLAN optimizer and Ralink XP drivers. I basically followed this http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies-archive.cfm/835328.html and another guide that told me to use XP drivers from Ralink and finally got it to work fine without the lag or high ping latency in command prompt. May I also add that I have installed the latest firmware from Linksys site for the router.
I come here to ask how to fix network file transfer speeds. I barely get 1mbps usually 700-900kbps and while transfering, my signal strength fluctuates along with the link speed (18-54mbps). I've been up and down most forums and alot are outdated, or include alot of things i've already tried like disabling all firewall settings, turning off Remote Differential Compression and TCP autotuning, changing the duplex settings on my NIC (even though I cannot find duplex settings in my NIC advanced properties), etc.
I'm burnt out and out of ideas. Maybe some of you know something I haven't tried? Or any suggestions at all that I haven't tried may give me light. Thanks for the help
