I have a simple firewall setup with a freebsd 3.5-RELEASE machine acting as the firewall setup for my win98 machine. The outside NIC xl0 is set to 10baseT/UTP <half-duplex> and the inside NIC of the gateway/firewall is rl0 set to 100baseTX (100baseTX <half-duplex>). The connection to the inside is over a crossovercable to a 3COM905b also capable of 100Mbit Full Duplex. For some reason transferring files from the winmachine to the FreeBSD box never gets above 500kB per second. The kernel is compiled with: pseudo-device bpfilter 1 #Berkeley packet filter options IPFIREWALL options IPDIVERT options IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT And the rc.conf looks like this: # -- Firewall enabled -- # firewall_enable="YES" firewall_type="simple" natd_enable="YES" natd_interface="xl0" # -- NICs -- # ifconfig_xl0="inet 194.47.16.177 netmask 255.255.255.0" ifconfig_rl0="inet 192.168.3.2 netmask 255.255.255.0" For some reason it looks like all traffic on the inside network is controlled by xl0, how do I go about to get the internal net up to full speeds?
