I have an ethernet card that just doesn't seem to be performing well in both directions (in and out)....when I access this NIC from another machine on the LAN, file transfer is extremely fast, but when I use this machine to access another machine on the LAN, I can barely get 10 kb/sec out of it! Anyway dmesg.boot reports the card as: rl0: <RealTek 8139 10/100BaseTX> rev 0x10 int a irq 9 on pci0.13.0 rl0: Ethernet address: 00:20:18:88:96:47 rl0: autoneg complete, link status good (half-duplex, 10Mbps) So, is full-duplexing not turned on or something? How do I turn full-duplexing on? Or maybe that's not the problem?
