That is really low indeed because according to last month's Linux Journal magazine a generic Pentium III based router should be able to attain sustained throughput to the maximum on a 100mbps line.... something like a sustained 90mbps or something like that. I have a AMD K6-200 that does way better than 2mbps! And that's the stock Redhat 7.3 kernal with IPTables.
