Hello

I have two PCs on ethernet. 386 (20MB RAM) with FreeBSD 3.1-RELEASE and
Olivetti laptop P133 (32MB) with win95 installed. (I plan to use Linux but
still haven't manage to set up X and PCMCIA net)

What annoys me now is the ftp download "speed" on local ethernet.
Couple of hours ago I've downloaded 8MB file over the Internet (I use
FreeBSD box as an inet gateway) Download time: 18 minutes over ISDN. But
when I tried to copy it on the laptop using standard win95 ftp client, it
was even slower than that - 24 minutes. I don't think that the hardware does
not allow for higher throughput, upload from win95 laptop to FreeBSD box
from the same ftp session took only 32 seconds! (280KB/sec)

I don't know what is the problem neither how to find out.
