Steam Deck connected to 6E, desktop using 2.5gig and network transfers average about 30 MB/s. Meanwhile my laptop also connected via 6E can do 150 MB/s. (The Ally can also do 100+ MB/s transfers)

If I cancel the transfer and let it download instead, the speed doubles to about 70MB/s but the laptop downloads at ~120 MB/s

Going into Desktop Mode on the Deck to do a Fast.com speed test and there it can break the 1.1gbps mark.

Is there anything I can change to help speed up network transfers? Or is this just the nature of the Steam Deck?

    The local transfers are pretty meh imo. Not sure why, guessing something valve needs to fix/work on.
