Few reproducable ones: 1) scp -pr <large.directory@umd.edu> destiny.erols.com:<destination> crawls at 1K/sec or so. I can split the set of files to download into separate batches, and do three downloads in parallel, which will get the full 3K/sec bandwidth of a 28.8 modem. University of maryland's SMDS connection usually has no trouble saturating my modem :) 2) http://www.weatherpost.com Downloads part of the page, then stalls, and finally the connection closes before the page displays. Download is about 200bytes per second when it works. 3) http://www.intel.com Go to their developer/literature section. Try downloading a big PDF. Stall, timeout. 4) cvsup.freebsd.org Connection timeout after about "200K of Wire Tot". Extremely slow until timeout This kinda stinks .. its hard to get the fix when the sup never completes :( All of these problems are caused when dialed in through erols springfield dedicated line. THey have received no other complaints, and I can use their normal dynamic system from windows without problem [have not tested with FreeBSD..] John
