Hi, guys !
I have a small network at home and I noticed something curious... When I
try to copy from one computer to another (the transfer is made through
the server - without a switch), the bandwidth is very low, about 2Mb/s.
Does anyone know why ? Another thing is that the bandwidth from the
server or from one of the "home" computers to the "outside" LAN is very
low too, about 700Kb/s up to 1.5Mb/s. Does anyone know why is that ?
Here is what ifconfig shows me :
------------------------------------- [ifconfig]
xl0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
options=8<VLAN_MTU>

An the machine info...
------------------------------------- [uname -a]
FreeBSD sergiu-it.tarnita.net 5.3-RELEASE FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE #1: Mon

root@sergiu-it.tarnita.net:/usr/src/sys/i386/compile/server i386
-------------------------------------
xl0 is the NIC connected to the "outside world", fxp0 and fxp1 are
connected to two computers that I have in separate rooms at home. I
don't know if it's important, but I use ipfw and natd to give access to
"home" computers to the "outise world".
So, if anybody have any ideea... I'd like to hear it ;-)
Thanks !
