This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_000A_01BFAD18.4A387EA0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Holy crap did this discussion get WAY off topic. Bhishan asked for some help figuring out why his BSD box is downloading at 1/10th of the speed of his windows box. Now that we've established that it's kiloBYTES on both ends, how about we help Bhishan figure out why it's so much slower. ----- 1. I would personally check the MTU setting (which can be checked with ifconfig on BSD) and see if it matches that of the Win box. You will need to find out how to check that on windows. 2. Make sure the network card that is plugging into the cable modem is explicitly set to 10BaseT half-duplex. If it's configuring to full duplex or 100BaseTX you may see this problem. 3. Disable NAT completely and see if it makes any difference, so we can eliminate NAT as a possible cause. Also, what version of FreeBSD are you running? -- Chris -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of Bhishan Hemrajani Sent: Wednesday, April 12, 2000 6:25 PM To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: cable download varies w/FreeBSD I am having a little problem with download speeds in FreeBSD. I currently have cable with COX@HOME. I am running my machine as a nat server in order for the computer's on my network to access the internet. However, when I download a file through nat, the speed varies from where I download the file directly with the cable modem. When I download through nat, the speed is about 15-30kb/sec. But, when I hook the cable modem up to one of the windows computers I get about 150-300kb/sec. At first I thought nat must be slow, but when I download a file on the nat machine, it is still around the same speed. Is there a reason for this? The exact file I am trying to download is: http://www.juston.com/vfs/pview.cgi/pretender/path/WinOnCD.rar Thank you. --bhishan ------=_NextPart_000_000A_01BFAD18.4A387EA0 Content-Type: application/x-pkcs7-signature; name="smime.p7s" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="smime.p7s" MIAGCSqGSIb3DQEHAqCAMIACAQExCzAJBgUrDgMCGgUAMIAGCSqGSIb3DQEHAQAAoIII7jCCAqEw ggIKoAMCAQICAwJd6jANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQQFADCBlDELMAkGA1UEBhMCWkExFTATBgNVBAgTDFdl c3Rlcm4gQ2FwZTEUMBIGA1UEBxMLRHVyYmFudmlsbGUxDzANBgNVBAoTBlRoYXd0ZTEdMBsGA1UE CxMUQ2VydGlmaWNhdGUgU2VydmljZXMxKDAmBgNVBAMTH1BlcnNvbmFsIEZyZWVtYWlsIFJTQSAx OTk5LjkuMTYwHhcNMDAwNDA0MTEwODI1WhcNMDEwNDA0MTEwODI1WjBEMR8wHQYDVQQDExZUaGF3 dGUgRnJlZW1haWwgTWVtYmVyMSEwHwYJKoZIhvcNAQkBFhJjam0yQGVhcnRobGluZy5uZXQwgZ8w DQYJKoZIhvcNAQEBBQADgY0AMIGJAoGBAM5lx40uF+cAlXOfMgeto7Ajjl7UII/J8YsIYoiKeUjI WMFNiOFBvqUFWl7+eURXoMpY3iP10kqwl+QjyG3pnLAAj3C9WmSUHJzT+xIb5VFtVr3r4UWFoL6N Ov37j+WqaNyz1r09UhWbqE/sX+0LYKtr9Uk/Gmd8GOuAUjG5E7/pAgMBAAGjUDBOMB0GA1UdEQQW MBSBEmNqbTJAZWFydGhsaW5nLm5ldDAMBgNVHRMBAf8EAjAAMB8GA1UdIwQYMBaAFIir8WCDZlX0 5FjHRh3AYb0j18OMMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBBAUAA4GBAIfGiPOf/H7t4bGtjun7S6DYvJ5juEDW1bnM P13vEdv5dpzNlSgN5oE7fT5ZcADH8cJ07rfC78fBdcTm/QpcJo2OgZffqbW9zlZK5576wDl1bHdS oR3sfZFxqvtj1f4MnJ/2RssJ/IN6d/DkuDOBUmIJf8C9WsGHpoSIdLM6a9OgMIIDFDCCAn2gAwIB AgIBCzANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQQFADCB0TELMAkGA1UEBhMCWkExFTATBgNVBAgTDFdlc3Rlcm4gQ2Fw ZTESMBAGA1UEBxMJQ2FwZSBUb3duMRowGAYDVQQKExFUaGF3dGUgQ29uc3VsdGluZzEoMCYGA1UE CxMfQ2VydGlmaWNhdGlvbiBTZXJ2aWNlcyBEaXZpc2lvbjEkMCIGA1UEAxMbVGhhd3RlIFBlcnNv bmFsIEZyZWVtYWlsIENBMSswKQYJKoZIhvcNAQkBFhxwZXJzb25hbC1mcmVlbWFpbEB0aGF3dGUu Y29tMB4XDTk5MDkxNjE0MDE0MFoXDTAxMDkxNTE0MDE0MFowgZQxCzAJBgNVBAYTAlpBMRUwEwYD VQQIEwxXZXN0ZXJuIENhcGUxFDASBgNVBAcTC0R1cmJhbnZpbGxlMQ8wDQYDVQQKEwZUaGF3dGUx HTAbBgNVBAsTFENlcnRpZmljYXRlIFNlcnZpY2VzMSgwJgYDVQQDEx9QZXJzb25hbCBGcmVlbWFp bCBSU0EgMTk5OS45LjE2MIGfMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBAQUAA4GNADCBiQKBgQCzaVqX1NAWC3q1xV3p IZwjcs0STEv3fs/H+8pyJPRCUqxXleN7YXoXhOf9cjk4lLTq7WWnkgZeveBl9hm7lHl2TD65aHB1 hBz0EXQAvAUsTwkDFzHM9EHUcsamXeKIRLCLLsRN8fDWhT5s85WUeJF+QOmc0Y0VV47Cc+Uw3kb1 TwIDAQABozcwNTASBgNVHRMBAf8ECDAGAQH/AgEAMB8GA1UdIwQYMBaAFHJJwnM0xlX0C3ZygX53 9IfnxrIOMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBBAUAA4GBAGvGWekx+um27LED2N9ycv6RYEjqxlXde/BnjsZhcOdt wqU32J23FyhWBYvdXHVvxpGQxmxmcRPQEHxrkW+G4CE2LcHX6rIJrc8tbcaDUpv7u/6ch538t+l0 kuRcl678fqzKDW9yemcsa3P1hvmd9QBu9B0Hzp2egmMp75MJflXeMIIDLTCCApagAwIBAgIBADAN BgkqhkiG9w0BAQQFADCB0TELMAkGA1UEBhMCWkExFTATBgNVBAgTDFdlc3Rlcm4gQ2FwZTESMBAG A1UEBxMJQ2FwZSBUb3duMRowGAYDVQQKExFUaGF3dGUgQ29uc3VsdGluZzEoMCYGA1UECxMfQ2Vy dGlmaWNhdGlvbiBTZXJ2aWNlcyBEaXZpc2lvbjEkMCIGA1UEAxMbVGhhd3RlIFBlcnNvbmFsIEZy ZWVtYWlsIENBMSswKQYJKoZIhvcNAQkBFhxwZXJzb25hbC1mcmVlbWFpbEB0aGF3dGUuY29tMB4X DTk2MDEwMTAwMDAwMFoXDTIwMTIzMTIzNTk1OVowgdExCzAJBgNVBAYTAlpBMRUwEwYDVQQIEwxX ZXN0ZXJuIENhcGUxEjAQBgNVBAcTCUNhcGUgVG93bjEaMBgGA1UEChMRVGhhd3RlIENvbnN1bHRp bmcxKDAmBgNVBAsTH0NlcnRpZmljYXRpb24gU2VydmljZXMgRGl2aXNpb24xJDAiBgNVBAMTG1Ro YXd0ZSBQZXJzb25hbCBGcmVlbWFpbCBDQTErMCkGCSqGSIb3DQEJARYccGVyc29uYWwtZnJlZW1h aWxAdGhhd3RlLmNvbTCBnzANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQEFAAOBjQAwgYkCgYEA1GnX1LCUZFtx6UfYDFG2 6nKRsIRefS0Nj3sS34UldSh0OkIsYyeflXtL734Zhx2G6qPduc6WZBrCFG5ErHzmj+hND3EfQDim AKOHePb5lIZererAXnbr2RSjXW56fAylS1V/Bhkpf56aJtVquzgkCGqYx7Hao5iR/Xnb5VrEHLkC AwEAAaMTMBEwDwYDVR0TAQH/BAUwAwEB/zANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQQFAAOBgQDH7JJ+Tvj1lqVnYiqk 8E0RYNBvjWBYYawmu1I1XAjPMPuoSpaKH2JCI4wXD/S6ZJwXrEcp352YXtJsYHFcoqzceePnbgBH H7UNKOgCneSa/RP0ptl8sfjcXyMmCZGAc9AUG95DqYMl8uacLxXK/qarigd1iwzdUYRr5PjRznei gTGCApIwggKOAgEBMIGcMIGUMQswCQYDVQQGEwJaQTEVMBMGA1UECBMMV2VzdGVybiBDYXBlMRQw EgYDVQQHEwtEdXJiYW52aWxsZTEPMA0GA1UEChMGVGhhd3RlMR0wGwYDVQQLExRDZXJ0aWZpY2F0 ZSBTZXJ2aWNlczEoMCYGA1UEAxMfUGVyc29uYWwgRnJlZW1haWwgUlNBIDE5OTkuOS4xNgIDAl3q MAkGBSsOAwIaBQCgggFLMBgGCSqGSIb3DQEJAzELBgkqhkiG9w0BBwEwHAYJKoZIhvcNAQkFMQ8X DTAwMDQyMzE1MzcyMlowIwYJKoZIhvcNAQkEMRYEFO770sT+PW0gCFpuQJBYZwjfUMw3MDwGCSqG SIb3DQEJDzEvMC0wBwYFKw4DAgcwDQYIKoZIhvcNAwICASgwBwYFKw4DAhowCgYIKoZIhvcNAgUw ga0GCSsGAQQBgjcQBDGBnzCBnDCBlDELMAkGA1UEBhMCWkExFTATBgNVBAgTDFdlc3Rlcm4gQ2Fw ZTEUMBIGA1UEBxMLRHVyYmFudmlsbGUxDzANBgNVBAoTBlRoYXd0ZTEdMBsGA1UECxMUQ2VydGlm aWNhdGUgU2VydmljZXMxKDAmBgNVBAMTH1BlcnNvbmFsIEZyZWVtYWlsIFJTQSAxOTk5LjkuMTYC AwJd6jANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQEFAASBgGs5uUkbaef7P48LracvM+6FQnY2zzSzlECEYnsmUiKuGDdk 1PAYgYPLOBAyF5+oVM0elsASXJg8xWAIrS0N+s3VvSzj/Td6qN/K4o+zmK9ZQzDyIgIGbxJVBJBY r9jVeiSJfFuKR6zi932Mqdz2YBX5Qql9vSu1mMbjefWPkBUSAAAAAAAA ------=_NextPart_000_000A_01BFAD18.4A387EA0-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
