Your rl0 interface is connected to a 10bt hub.  Your rl0 interface
is configured for full duplex.  This is a no-no.  Configure rl0 to
half duplex and all should be well.

  Subject: Very slow LAN transfers


  I have my FreeBSD box set up as my gateway to the internet, as
192.168.0.1.  Behind it are two windows machines, 192.168.0.2 and
192.168.0.3.  When transfering between the gateway and either windows
machine, speeds are excruciatingly slow, in the neighborhood of 80KB/sec.
When transferring between the two windows machines i can reach around
1.5MB/sec.
  I have an NE2000 compatible card connected to the internet and a Realtek
8139 based card on the LAN.  The LAN is running off a 10BT hub.  Here's a
printout of ifconfig:
  rl0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
          inet 192.168.0.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255
          ether 00:48:54:88:62:bd
          media: 10baseT/UTP status: active
          supported media: autoselect 100baseTX <full-duplex> 100baseTX
10baseT/UTP <full-duplex> 10baseT/UTP 100baseTX <hw-loopback>
  ed0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
          inet 24.115.189.163 netmask 0xfffffe00 broadcast 24.115.189.255
          ether 00:00:e8:17:15:36
  lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384
          inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you.
