On my 21600 PPP link with compression enabled I get 170 ms for 56 byte pings and 320 ms for 512 byte pings. Ftp to my next hop router is 2.5Kb/sec for a gzipped file with the link running at 21600. I have not used slip but seen people that have used both say there is no practical difference in througput. John Capo
