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
Your ISP's theoretical 768 Kilo bps compared to your NIC's theoretical 10
Mega bps.
Me thinks your 10Mb NIC is not guilty.
Do you run your DSL modem as a modem only, or does it do DHCP, DNS and
firewall as well?

768 Kb/s= ~ 70 kB/sec. You have to taken into account the overhead in
the packets which roughly is a factor 10 to translate Kb/s to kB/s.
I have a cable connection which is much faster (here in Holland at
least) than ADSL and regularly have download speeds of 120 - 150 kB/s.

pn] Thanks, all. I'm ashamed that I was unable to do
that math myself.

that?). My LEAF boxes do the DHCP, DNS and firewall
You shouldn't be, because you were right that there's a bottleneck, you
just missed what the bottleneck is.
A 768k T-1 or Cablemodem line is going to give you around
90-95Kbytes/sec on a download, whereas your DSL is only turning out
around 70Kbytes/sec. The reason for this is pretty

I have Bering-uClibc 2.1 setup in a 486/66 with 16MB.
With two ISA (SMC 8216C) 10M cards I have a TESTED ~7M/s download speed
from a company internal FTP server. With 100M connection I was able to
download (without the FW in the middle) 20M/s. Both tests were done in a

Hello Peter,
Nice name ;-)

I know it's already resolved, but I recommend using DSLReports's speed test
for this kind of thing. Test a
