Hi all!

I need some advice how to best tackle this problem I'm having with an =
ADMtek USB To LAN Converter in conjunction with an nVidia nForce MCP79 =
USB chip:

--- config begin ---
root@creutzfeld:(~)# uname -a
FreeBSD creutzfeld.z.net 8.2-STABLE FreeBSD 8.2-STABLE #7 r226546: Wed =
Oct 19 22:08:28 CEST 2011     =
root@creutzfeld:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/CREUTZFELD  amd64
root@creutzfeld:(~)# usbconfig list
ugen0.1: <OHCI root HUB nVidia> at usbus0, cfg=3D0 md=3DHOST spd=3DFULL =
(12Mbps) pwr=3DSAVE
ugen1.1: <EHCI root HUB nVidia> at usbus1, cfg=3D0 md=3DHOST spd=3DHIGH =
(480Mbps) pwr=3DSAVE
ugen2.1: <OHCI root HUB nVidia> at usbus2, cfg=3D0 md=3DHOST spd=3DFULL =
(12Mbps) pwr=3DSAVE
ugen3.1: <EHCI root HUB nVidia> at usbus3, cfg=3D0 md=3DHOST spd=3DHIGH =
(480Mbps) pwr=3DSAVE
ugen3.2: <USB To LAN Converter ADMtek> at usbus3, cfg=3D0 md=3DHOST =
spd=3DHIGH (480Mbps) pwr=3DON
ehci1: <NVIDIA nForce MCP79 USB 2.0 controller> mem =
0xfae7e800-0xfae7e8ff irq 21 at device 6.1 on pci0
--- config end ---

This ADMtek device gets roughly 10MBit downstream with the configuration =
above. When used with the same OS on a board with an Intel 82801GB/R =
(ICH7) USB 2.0 controller it gets 64MBit downstream, which is the =
maximum I can get from my ISP.

I don't see anything unusual in the system messages, thus I suspect it's =
an issue with the USB implementation for the nForce chipset.

What can I do in order to find out what's the bottleneck here?


Thanks in advance,

  Marcus
