Enabling full duplex would not noticeably speed up transfers to your Empeg.  Full duplex only means it can send packets to and from the unit at the *same* time.  But, when uploading music, the majority of data transfer is to the Empeg with only a very minimal amount of date from the unit.  So, full duplex doesn't really matter for an Empeg.

The 40% transfer utilization is disappointing.  I hope that can be improved to full bandwidth.  Some protocols are just inefficient, though, so I can understand.
