it takes forever to download tracks (maybe 30 seconds on average)..


That's because you're using USB. It's slower than ethernet.

If you want it faster you have to graduate out of USB.

If you don't have a network, most of the time you can simply plug an ethernet cable directly from the computer to the empeg.

Assuming that both devices are configured for automatic DHCP addressing, then both devices will get a UPNP address that will look like 169.254.x.x, and Emplode and/or Jemplode should be able to find the player.
