I have the 3Com card set to DHCP, and it gets it's IP address from a cable modem. The Dell system itself has fine internet access speeds (450+ K average). However, I have recently went through the steps to configure natd, and now I have a separate system (plugged in to the second adapter [rl0] using a X-wired cable). Doing a speed test from this system (online internet test), it seemed to have 450K average upload, but for some reason is only downloading at around 70K. My question: can I speed this up? Is there some tweaking or settings that I missed on the natd server? If more information is needed, please let me know. Thanks in advance, Justin P.
