Hi Stacey, Thanks for your quick reaction. :) I used SecureFX, both for the upload and the download. I measures the download again, and it is ~2700K/s for a gzipped file. Upload is still around 32K/s. > What's between the two boxes involved in the tests? A DrayTek Vigor 2600 ADSL modem/router with standard CAT5 UTP cables between them. > What's the card configs on the WinXP box? The network card on the XP-machine looks like this: Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : Description . . . . . . : Realtek RTL8139 Family PCI Fast Ethernet NIC Physical Address. . . : 00-50-FA-81-5B-AC Dhcp Enabled. . . . . : No IP Address. . . . . . . : 192.168.79.3 Subnet Mask . . . . . : 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway . . . : I tested it setting both its speed to "Auto-detect", and any combination of half/full duplex (both 10/100). > You knew it was coming.., what's the interface config on the network > device on the lan? I set the LAN IP Network Configuration to use 192.168.79.1 as default gateway (subnet 255.255.255.0). NAT takes care of the "outside" address, but that does not seem to apply here. And I defined two boxes: my XP one (192.168.79.3), and my FreeBSD box (192.168.79.128). I just do not understand how upload can be so significantly slower. As far as I can see, I see no errors (as in a bad connection) that would not be about the same for both ways.
