I can get only 7 kb/s with my localnetwork which is really annoying me. --- Kris Kennaway wrote: > On Sun, Aug 26, 2001 at 12:04:16AM +0200, Alex Wang > wrote: > > Sorry to trouble you again... > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > > On Sat, Aug 25, 2001 at 10:11:58PM +0200, Alex > Wang wrote: > > > But if it's a wrong setting on the NIC, wouldn't > it restrict *all* > > ifconfig_* in /etc/rc.conf > > > > My rc.conf says ifconfig_ed0="dhcp", and the > output from ifconfig > > says that ed0 is "SIMPLEX".
