I'm a little puzzled perhaps I've misunderstood your situation ...

If you access your pogoplug from the home network where the pogoplug is connected data transfers will be at up to Gigabit speeds. (whether web app or desk drive app is used)

If you access your pogoplug remotely, eg from your work, then the transfer speed depends on the speed of the internet connection. Bearing in mind that the ISP upload is usually much slower than the download speed this is considerably slower than when on the home network!

Remember, its not what life does to you, but what you do with what life does to you, that matters.

I don't have any information on your inability to upload large (bigger than 2GB) files. Perhaps another forum member will be able to give you advice.

Further to my earlier answer, if you enable "use full security sessions" by ticking the checkbox at my.pogoplug.com => settings =>security settings - all data transfers will be encrypted and will be via the internet and pogoplug servers. (https) Whether or not you are connected to your home network or remotely.
