When I connected the modem to my FBSD machine which has two 3Com 3c905C TX NICs. The media for the first (which is the public interface) is 100baseTX (full-duplex), 10baseT/UTP for the second one. I'm using natd on the FBSD, can that be what is causing the speed decrease? Why can't I access the internet from the machines connected to the FBSD machine when I try to set the media for the private NIC to 100baseTX? ===== Regards, Russell K. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
