It happens sometimes on a LAN, maybe a faulty switch or just a bottleneck somewhere. Ask your cable operator to check it.

i tried, he has openend file sharing port ,does that create a problem

You can use default port 80 or any other port you wish to use.

I don't think ports are the issue here, its a network configuration problem and no amount of tinkering with HFS will help get better speeds.
