Run a graphical network monitor such as gkrellm or kcpuload.
Then upload and download and download a large file at the same time.
Put the monitoring on the quickest update possible--100ms or whatever.
If it's not clear doing that, upload (or download) the same file and
time it.

Ken; Most NIC's, hubs switches, etc. will display the speed of your
connections by using 2-color LEDS. The general rule-of-thumb is that a
10Mb connection will show an amber or yellow LED color on the NIC, hub,
etc., and a 100 Mb connect

10Mb connection will show an amber or yellow LED color on the NIC, hub,

for your NIC, hub
Is there any way of finding out if a 3com 508 is in half or full duplex mode
without shutting down the server and running 3coms set-up program.
Come to think of it, is there any way of finding out if ANY NIC is in 10 or
100 mode and full / half duplex without shutting down the machine.
Many Thank
