Hello,
	Again the LNE100TX saga continues:

Computer A and B both dual boot win95 and FreeBSD 4.3

Windows to Windows I get ftp transfer rate of about 2.5MB/sec,
both computers are manually set to 100baseTX [half-duplex].
FreeBSD is also manually set to '100baseTX'  [half-duplex]

I boot computer A into FreeBSD 4.3 using the following devices:

device miibus
device dc

[complete kernel file @ www.kuyarov.org/fbsd.txt ]

I ftp from FreeBSD to other win95 box [running Serv-U ftp], I get
very low transfer rates -- about 100kb/sec [more or less depending on the
position of the moon and how many times I've said 'friggin A' ]

So I ftp from win95 to my FreeBSD box, same slow rates.
Same problem if I boot both computers into FreeBSD...

I have tested, and restested this, work in Windows fine in FreeBSD sucks.

Am I using the correct driver [dc0 ? ] as in Linux I used Tulip,
yet the Tulip driver that is in LINT does not work for my card
or am I doing something wrong?

Can someone please confirm that LNE100TX v 4.0 sucks in FreeBSD
and I should go buy a 3com/Intel.
or
Can someone please confirm that they have an LNE100TX v 4.0
working fine and getting over 2MB/sec transfer rates.

I will go and buy new cards, but I dont' want to know knowing for sure
if it's my cards or I'm doing something wrong.
