I have a Lan card and a USR 56K modem on the 386. I have set this computer up as a router and gateway (using the -alias in ppp)to the internet for my comptuers on my LAN. I have everything working, however for some reason, I find my connection very slow when I am working on another computer on my LAN even when I am the only one getting information from the internet. I have tried dialing in terminal mode and it gives my a connection speed of 44Kbs (a wierd number) and it still goes at max 1.5kbs!! What I was wondering is if there was some way to increase the speed of my connection. Also, why does my internet access goes so slow even though my 386 doesn't even seem to be having any trouble with the requests? thank you Brandon Evenson To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
