I setup a new server last night and we had some odd issues transferring data to it from another server. It's a 5.2.1 RC2 server (it also happens on my server at home). the if driver is em0. If i do the following command: ifconfig em0 media auto I get (between servers) up around 10MB/s if i force the setting to: ifconfig em0 media 100baseTX mediaopt full-duplex (which is what it autosenses at) I get (max) 6Kb/s Any reason why it would do this? I've ran 4.x fine forcing the media/media opt, but under 5.x i get horrible speeds. nice speeds: em0: flags=9843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,LINK0,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 options=3<RXCSUM,TXCSUM> inet x.x.x.x netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast x.x.x.255 ether 00:30:48:28:ff:e2 media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>) status: active poor speeds: em0: flags=9843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,LINK0,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 options=3<RXCSUM,TXCSUM> inet x.x.x.x netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast x.x.x.255 ether 00:30:48:28:ff:e2 media: Ethernet 100baseTX <full-duplex> status: active __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
