Typo: 20 MBit = FullDuplex

Right

I was running Traffic betwen the the Interfaces...

eth0    was the CableModem      (2MBit)
eth1    publicnet               (DNS, webservers, FTP, Mail)
eth2    privatenet              (Workststions, SQL- and SAMBA/NFS-Server
eth3    securenet               (extra firewalled)
eth4    wavenet                 (2 x Lucent ORINOCO COR-1100 ~7 MBit)

It was working quiet well wit an Am486dx4-100 and 
later better with an Am5x86-P75 (AMD-X5-133ADZ)

Not the Internet Connection, but between the other Interfaces...

I have in "publicnet" a full Debian-Mirror, now use wget to download 
3 times from it (privatenet, securenet and wavelan)

In the "wavenet" I have a FTP-Server too so I download from it from 
privatenet and securenet...

Traffic enough to test !

Greetings
Michelle
