How did you test, with what software? Also: MB = MegaBytes mb = megabits Assuming you mean 10MB/s then you probably have a 100FDX ethernet NIC, switch, or both. > - How can tell if my network cards can do better than 10MB? If this is a 10/100FDX card and/or switch you're pretty close to topped out. I can achieve 11.5MB/s with FTP and an Intel PILA8470B 10/100 PCI NIC and 100FDX switch. My Samba performance however tops out around 8-9MB/s despite my numerous efforts at tuning over many years. > - What's the most probable reason for the slow network speed? I.e., which > is a good order that I check for the problem? First tell us what the link speed is. If it's 100FDX then you don't have a problem. In fact, what you should have done, and need to do, is provide as much detail about your NIC, switch, and network topology in general, in order for us to give you concise answers. -- Stan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
