It's running Freebsd 5.2 stable, has two networks cards, a realtek 8139 and a broadcom 4401 - The second one is my laptop and it's running most of the time Linux (Mandrake cooker with a 2.6 kernel), sometimes winxp (because of the lack of support for some hardware components) and has a sis900 network adapter My problem is : I have very poor performances with tcp streams from my server to my laptop (0.35 Mb/s), but throughput is normal from the laptop to the server (90Mb/s) and also (my favorite one) from Internet to my laptop (~4Mb/s). When I'm running WinXP, all is quite normal. I've tried to invert network cards on my server, to bypass my switch : no result Any idea ? Laurent Goujon
