Hello,

The situation:

PC1:

Pentium 120 MHz, 32 MB RAM, 3COM 3C509 (ep0) network card.

PC2:

486 DX-2 50 MHz, 8 MB RAM, 3COM 509 (ep0) network card.

Both computers are connected using a thin ethernet cable (coax 50 ohm).

When I send with ftp a package of 800 kB from PC1 to PC2 the speed is
about 23 seconds and 65 kB/sec. I think this is to slow. There is no one
other using this network. The network speed must be around the 500
kB/sec. Or is this wrong ??

Can anyone tell me if the speed (65 kB/sec) is correct or must the
network speed comes the a higher rate (500 kB/sec) ??

Thanks,

	Wouter
