hehe, it goes thru the same router i cannot access with a direct connection. I can't send SMTP to that router either. Yet downloading with that router as NAT gateway works perfectly. ;) I've also thought about using a 10MBit hub as additional link to the m68k box, yet that does sound quite hackish to me.. ;) All attempts to use ipv6 in order to gain a public IP have yet failed, so for now i can't even ssh into that machine. *g* Maybe that hub would also solve that one. > > Aparently the NIC can't queue packets from the 100MBit properly and > > therefore is loosing at least a number of them which are resent, but at > > a slow throughput rate. > > Does the driver complain at all? Anything in dmesg? the ipv6 does complain about "prefix with wrong length 64" and the icmpv6_send does complain about no reply to error/fragment. Nothing about the ipv4 or about the ethernet link itself. -- Best regards, Kilian
