I get similar issues - interesting of note, however - is I tried switching to a belkin 'wireless notebook network card' and had basically the same problems. My access point (at home) is the dlink 713p, which I expect is the cause of my problems (and perhaps yours) because I *don't* have these problems at work (early run airport with upgraded firmware).
Interestingly enough, however, is that I don't believe the problem is the actual transfer - because on lan transfers I rarely lose the wireless connectivity, I expect it's the traditional "too many collisions, shutting down this port" from the switches perspective (you get the same issue if you jack a 10baseT hub into a 10/100baseT switch and do large transfers, the switch just shuts the port off until its power cycled. I expect the lan transfers go off without a hitch and there's less air traffic or resent packets. Come to think - the lan transfers are normally copying from the laptop (wireless) to a wired host - whereas the internet transfers are copying to the laptop - so there would just be ACK's coming back down the air on the LAN stuff. Aww hell, I'm just rambling now - hope this helps you some though. I pray daily for firmware updates for my AP to fix this. P.S. - anyone get disconnects a *lot* with their wireless? I idle on IRC and I'll get disconnected easily 6-10 times throughout a day.
