Hello,
I have a 2 yr old Gateway laptop (solo 1200) with a built in nic:
00:12.0 Ethernet controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6102 [Rhine-II] (rev 51)
I am currently running the latest Libranet release (awesome OS!) which is
based on Sarge/Debian. The system loads my nic module at boot which always
works well, except that I have this strange problem of very slow uploads.
The system will download large files very fast from my desktop that is
connected to a switch, but if I try to upload to my desktop, it is PAINFULLY
slow. There are no errors that I can see: ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:E0:B8:38:25:C3
inet addr:192.168.10.13 Bcast:192.168.10.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

Interrupt:5 Base address:0xe800
If I load M$-xp, it blazes along on both upload/download, so I know the
switch and my desktop are fully functional. Yet I see this problem when I
run either Debian's Woody, or Libranet's (Sarge). . . This must be a Debian
issue.
Anyone have any ideas that I could look into and perhaps fix this problem.
tia
Wishing you well.
