Glenn,

During peak times during the work days, 2Mbs is about all I get. I again to not know if the bottleneck is the server, the Sprint backbone or on the local loop.

If you consistently get 2Mb of throughput during the day to your local server then I'd wager that your "network segment" (the one you share with everyone else) is a significant performance bottleneck. There could be too much traffic or retransmissions due to errors (that only show up under higher load conditions). To be sure try the file transfer multiple times over different periods of the day so that you can reduce the possibility that it's a server problem. Be sure to write down the performance figures each time. A pattern should develop and you can then present the results to your ISP. They may or may not be able/willing to do anything about it.
