FG> My guess is either cheap hardware (NIC) or bad tuning. What NICs are you FG> using? I'm using Intel cards (fxp) at the moment. But from reading the posts I've decided to buy GBIT NIC. Now the dilema is what brand name.. INTEL or 3COM ? maybe you guys could advice? And yes, my PC is dealing with lots of network traffic.. It's a gateway + shaping. It deals with almost 1000 users.. Will this PC (p4 2.4GHZ) deal with 10mbit internet? as a gateway + shaper ? with one GBIT NIC connected to 100Mbit swith? Thanks once more for your time guys, and thanks for your support FG> Fer
