I'm having a hard time installing the 10-21 FreeBSD SNAP over ppp. It seems to connect to the ftp.freebsd.org fine, but I'm getting throughput of less than 100 bytes per second (yes, bytes). My modem is connected to my gateway at 28.8k. This is not a network congestion problem because I get much higher throughput if I attach my modem to my linux box and try transferring files from the freebsd ftp server. Any ideas? David P.S.: On another note, sometimes if I abort an operation (ctrl-c) when installing FreeBSD (for instance, if I get tired of watching a 100 byte per second install), the screen goes completely blue and a few moments later the install dies with a signal 11.
