hi folks,

i have a fast broadband connection, my provider is at home dot nl.

the connection worked like a charm till about two weeks ago, when the
mailserver slowed down significantly, but the browser kept working as
fast as ever.

my provider could not tell me the cause of all this so i decided to do
something myself. I installed (under etch) an asus wireless card with
the rt2500 module, which works fine since yesterday-evening:.... sends
my emails as fast as my onboard chip in the old days.

the clou: so when i send emails from my two maillists with the  onboard
nvidia-chip the process is slow as a snail.
when i use the wireless chip of the asus-card it goes as fast as ever.

i have *not* a wireless modem and yet the rt2500 chip of the wireless
asus-card does its work very well.

somebody out there who understands this??

some explanantion will be highly appreciated,

regards,

steef


Perhaps you are on a neighbor's wireless network, who uses a different ISP?

Try a "sudo iwconfig" to show your wireless settings.

no. when i do iwconfig i get the connection 'default'. this connection disappears when i shut off my motorola cable-modem.

this is the output of #ifconfig -a, with the modem 'on'. i shut off in /etc/network/interfaces eth1, my onboard nvidia ethernet_chip.

reg.,
