There are 2 nics... two Realtek ISA cards running with the ne2000
driver.

yeah... Internet is faster... but I get this result when I transfer
files between my server and any computer on my intranet! not from a
computer on the Internet. All transfer pass through the Intranet
card... so why one interface is slower than the other? I think my
problem is there... but I do not know how to resolve this...
If linux uses the the same module (ne) to communicate between
different cards, is it a problem? Should I compile the ne.o module
directly in the kernel? If I do that, how do I configure it to use my
network cards?

I really appreciate your help!!!
