Does anyone here have any ideas? I use natd and a 56k phone connection to my ISP so that all my computers can share one line. This all works fine, but I experience very noticeable jumpiness when typing over a telnet connection to a remote system. Delays of 7-10 seconds between typing characters and them appearing on my screen are not uncommon. If I rebuild my kernel without IPFIREWALL and IPDIVERT, and disable natd and the firewall code, these delays go away so I am assuming that it is natd/firewall/divert that is responsible for this delay. Is there a parameter or anything that I can tune to eliminate or reduce this affect? I looked in the lists and did not see anything specific to my situation. I am running FreeBSD -current as of 11/21 and my firewall is set up as "open". Any suggestions are appreciated.
