Hi there, i have just installed freebsd 4.9 one of my machies. This box is configured to be a gateway/router. The install was a base install, and i recompiled with the IPFILTER options. Ive added the net.inet.ip.forwarding=1 to my /etc/sysctl.conf. When accessing the internet (via ADSL/PPPoE) on the gateway machine, my downloads are very fast, and im very happy. my problem is that when i connect any computer to this LAN, the speed drops dramatically. For example: From the gateway machine speed > 90K/s. From Machine attached to gateway machine speed < 10K/s. Im not very good with networking, so im not exactly sure how to troubleshoot this. May someone suggest something for me to check. I would like to keep my gateway with freebsd. I hope this wasn't too confusing. thank-you aya Find local movie times and trailers on Yahoo!
