I wonder if there is any trick to boosting my transmit rate - I think it really should be in the upper 170s sustained.

The TM has the latest firmware and I have the most recent Airport utility version.
yeah, with those numbers you should be fine. Of course, an ethernet direct connection would take it up most likely 3-5x in real throughput, but if you can do that then waiting is all you can do. I wonder if there is some other process running on the machine that is throttling it to the TM?
