        I just recently installed a genuine NE2000 16 bit novell BNC card in
a freebsd box and an 8 bit NE1000 in my win95 box, they are both 10mbps
right? but my transfer rate varies from 140k per second down to like 40k
between machines, and they are only seperated by a 15 foot cable with
terminators on the end.

        I thought i'd get almost a megabyte per second.

        Anyone have any suggestions why it is acting like this?  I know the
cards are old... but is there any diagnostic tests i can run to aid
diagnosing the problem?

thank you
