I did, but then the transfers to the windows box were also affected I guess.

And to answer the iperf wondering of Patrick:

------------------------------------------------------------
Client connecting to banana, TCP port 2121
TCP window size: 4.00 MByte (default)
------------------------------------------------------------
[  3] local 192.168.147.249 port 65230 connected with 192.168.147.11 
port 2121
[ ID] Interval       Transfer     Bandwidth
[  3]  0.0-10.0 sec  1.07 GBytes    918 Mbits/sec

Though I have no idea what this tells me. Never used iperf before...

Thanks,

-Harry
