Hmmm... How does this work the other way; ie: users dialed in to an annex with Windoze/Mac hitting a FBSD server somewhere on the net. Do they see this problem as well? We've had *alot* of mysterious problems with our annexes running R10.1A. Users report similar problems; the initial ftp connection builds OK, but then as data is actually transferred, it slows to a crawl. Seen it with http as well, and an sz over a telnet connection. Have yet to track down why some people dialing in see this and some don't. We just purchased R3.1 (11.?) in hopes it will help. What version of software is the Annex you are using running?
