My ethernet problems
The problem: On my (ISA) EtherExpress 16 card, transfer speed is 10kb/s.
On a 10Megabit card!
Connecting the cable to a 3com card in the same computer gives me
reasonable speeds, so it's not the cable. The kernel is the latest -
2.0.34, so it's not the kernel. Both ethernet cards are loaded as
modules. Pings give reasonable response times - 1 or 2 ms (it's a really
long cable.)
So, why am I getting horrible transfer rates? I could even live with
300kb/s, but 10kb/s is just too slow. And I used to get normal speeds on
this card!
