Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, I'm running 4.3 Beta on a shiny new Dell 1400. The NIC comes up as the fxp0 device. It is an embedded Intel pro 100/+ The light on the switch says it is in Duplex mode. However, ipconfig -a says SIMPLEX. I've tried a different switch, but no change. Using the tweaks John Polstra wrote about with NFS mounts gives me around 8Mb/sec for an NFS read so there ain't nothing wrong with network performance. What gives? Eddie. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
