I have a freebsd box with 2 NICs, one going to my dsl modem the other to a switch for my internal network. The gateway run natd, a bunch of ipfw rules and a couple of natd_redirect options for a couple of internal machines I want to see from the outside. I am having bandwidth problems on my internal machines, a single data stream will top out at 70K/sec. Multiple streams will suck up all that the dsl modem can do however. It also only seem to affect the windows machines I have internaly. The unix (freebsd and linux) machines on the inside dont have this problem. I havent a clue why but it has only started recently and the only thing I can think of that changed was an update of the gateway to 4.5 from release 4.4. Any ideas where to start looking for a cause? thanks -- Steve Heistand heistand@heistand.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
