Possibly the IPv6 thing? Turn it off. I've also heard that turning off auto
tuning can help with network problems.
From an elevated cmd prompt:
netsh interface tcp show global [enter]
If the line Receive Window Auto-Tuning Level does not say ?disabled,? enter
this command:
netsh interface tcp set global autotuning=restricted [enter]
If this doesn?t help, do the whole process again, but this time substitute
this command:
netsh interface tcp set global autotuning=disabled [enter]
If it doesn?t work for you, and you feel the need to put things back the way
they were, you can type this command:
netsh interface tcp set global autotuning=normal [enter]
Other than that, I'm afraid I can't guess. Since you've determined that this
is an issue with the Vista operating system, if you don't get any answers
from the enterprise networking gurus (of whom I am not one), then since you
have a business you undoubtedly have a support contract with Microsoft. I
would use it. The enterprise-level support at Microsoft is excellent. Even
if you don't have a support contract, this cost of doing business would be
worth expending. Additionally, it might be useful to contact a local
enterprise-level networking firm to see if they have experienced similar
issues with Vista machines and if they have a solution. Of course those
paths won't be free, but this isn't a home user situation.
Good luck and I'm sorry I was unable to help you.
