 Slow network I recently installed Slackware 9.1 on my Compaq Armada E500 laptop. Everything works well except for one thing. The network is very slow. When copying files from my main PC (with Windows 2000) I get about 120 kbytes/s. When using Redhat 8, I got about 650 kbytes/s and with Windows 2000 I've got about 1100 kbytes/s(!). The network card is a CN40BC (a NE2000 clone PC-card). What is wrong here? I've tried different settings for my kernel but I still get about 120-130 kbytes/s when I should get at least 600 kbyte/s. Any clue, someone?      |

Sounds to me as though you have a setting mismatch. > The network card is a CN40BC (a NE2000 clone PC-card). Ok, try "mii-tool" and/or "ethtool" to see if it has an MII interface. > What is wrong here? Hard to speculate, make sure both ends are setup at the same speed/duplex. And to be sure, don't use auto-negotiation on either end. > I've tried different settings for my kernel but I still get about 120-130 > kbytes/s when I should get at least 600 kbyte/s. Which settings? > Any clue, someone? Try the above, but you might want to provide more info on your exact settings (for one: copy&paste "ifconfig" output). If that didn't help. -- -Menno. |

Proble solved! There was missing ISA-support in the kernel. Now I have about 800 kbytes/s. |
