Hi, 768Kb/s = 96KB/s or 93KB/s depending on what your ISP considers a Kilo.
I have 1024 over 256 cable, I very VERY rarely see one connection hit more than 70. If I want a fast download, I use Getright and use 3 or 4 different sources. Does anyone else think that all this massive increase in downstream by ISPs (as a marketing tool) is outstripping the resources of the poor old creaky internet? That's just practical thinking though, I don't know any technical reasons you could be running slow. Sorry :P James. -----Original Message----- From: Peter Nosko [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 14 April 2004 23:11 To: leaf Subject: [leaf-user] Is my NIC the bottleneck? pn] I'm still running E2B on a P166. I have 768K SDSL, and my leaf box is connected to the DSL modem via a 10Mbps NIC. The best speed I can download from anywhere is in the 70something KB/sec (as reported on a Windows box on the internal network). I "think" I should be able to do faster downloads, but am not sure where I'm getting bottlenecked. ===== ----- Peter Nosko ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) This is a good place for a tagline. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
