Thanks for all the responses but still no luck. I had to put linux on =
the system instead. But I did run a ftp test comparing FreeBSD to Linux. =
The results:

Using FreeBSD 2.1.0:

ftp transfer with freebsd 1927427 bytes @ 4.2e+02 seconds 4.4kb/s

Removing FreeBSD and Installed Linux 2.0

ftp transfer with Linux    1927427 bytes @  3.05 seconds (6.2e+02 kb/s) =
Wooo Wooo :)

Using the exact same configuration and computer, the reults are in the =
Linux favor by far.
Don't know what the problem was.

Thanks again.
