I am having a little problem with download speeds in FreeBSD. I currently have cable with COX@HOME. I am running my machine as a nat server in order for the computer's on my network to access the internet. However, when I download a file through nat, the speed varies from where I download the file directly with the cable modem. When I download through nat, the speed is about 15-30kb/sec. But, when I hook the cable modem up to one of the windows computers I get about 150-300kb/sec. At first I thought nat must be slow, but when I download a file on the nat machine, it is still around the same speed. Is there a reason for this? The exact file I am trying to download is: http://www.juston.com/vfs/pview.cgi/pretender/path/WinOnCD.rar Thank you. --bhishan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
