I just got a cable modem for my 2300 in a dock. The installers put a NuBus ethernet card in (Farallon), and we were up and running. The problem is that the speed is much slower than expected. Typical download speeds with IE were 8KB/sec! I tried a bunch of changes, and got the speed up, but not as high as it could be. By shutting off RamDoubler and virtual memory, and processor cycling, as well as reducing the disk cache to 128K, the speed went up to 25KB/s, which is still far below what I would expect with a cable modem. A neighbor with a Windows machine gets >200KB/s. Anybody have an idea of what to expect, or how to speed this up? Thanks, David Linker ---------- Duo/2400 List, The friendliest place on the Net!
