It's very slow to transfer files after connecting to the network under DOS...

It's a bit slow, but not too slow. It's within an acceptable range.
I copied from the host directly in the VMWARE virtual machine. After loading SMARTDRV, it took 8 minutes to copy a 688M file.
In the VMWARE virtual machine, without loading SMARTDRV, copying from the network, with a 100M switch, it took 15 minutes. It's a bit slow.
In the XP operating system, copying through the network, a 688M file only took 2 minutes. XP has quite an advantage in network aspects. Not tested under PE.

It's already very good, much faster than Bluetooth, haha!
Asking the person above, how do you connect out in vmware? I have its two virtual network cards, used the one with NAT, enabled DHCP, no matter whether I set WATTCP to use DHCP or not, I can't connect with the host! I only used the ndis to packet driver, didn't use that msclint thing.

By the way, I run Damn Small Linux in VMware, and I can access it directly with the above settings (NAT + DHCP).

I am using MS CLIENT 3.0, the driver is NDIS 2, the protocol is TCP/IP, also, I am using the bridge mode, not using NAT, NAT should be address translation. I directly bridge, the virtual machine and the host are in the same subnet. Use the PING command to test the gateway, and it can be connected.

Thanks to the person above, I've got it sorted out : ) It's just that Arachne doesn't seem to run properly! It's like it's dead, not making progress, probably stuck at the network self-test stage. Sigh. Lynx is actually pretty good!
