Hello all! This is my first post. :) I just installed FreeBSD 4.6 as gateway/router and my workstation (Win2000) is having very poor transfer rates. Especially download rate, which is about 2kB/s sec. (Yes, 100Mb LAN and 2kB/s). My girlfriend workstation (Win2000) with Kingston KNE100TX NIC is OK (5-10MB/s upload and 3-9Mb/s download, ProFTPd). Our hub is CentreCOM MR912TX. I also have very poor download speed from Internet and I think it is related to FreeBSD, since it is router and all my data is coming through it. FreeBSD box itself has two (2) 3Com 3c905C-TX Fast Etherlink XL cards. I heard also FreeBSD is having problems with 3Com 3c905C-TX cards? Slow? Here is so far what I've tried. FreeBSD side; tried changing 100BaseTX to 100BaseTX fullduplex, tried other cables. Win2000 side; tried re-installing and other drives, tried 10mb, 100mb, full and halfduplex. No go. Any suggestions and/OR help is appreciated! - JM To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
