Hi all, first of all, as far as I can tell, everything works okay. But: I have two 486 boxes on the isolated piece of ether. I've set up networking between the boxes, and they see each other and communicate okay, but *very slowly*. The ether cards are SMC Elite Ultra's, 83-something, which used to be recognized as 8216 w/16 kB of RAM at 2.0R times, and are recognized as 8416 w/8 kB at 2.05A. They did work okay on 2.0R! Right now, my NFS read (cat something >/dev/null) runs at approximately 200 kBps, and FTP get is someplace between 200 and 450 kBps. These numbers seem rather low to me (NFS used to be ~670 kBps but FTP only 200-250 kBps, at 2.0R) What am I doing wrong? (sorry about to few details, I have no internet access from home) Thanks, (for all the great work so far, etc :) /Alby
