Hello.
I have a 3C905 PCI 10Mb/s Ethernet Card, which i configure with:
ifconfig_xl0="inet 10.1.2.15 netmask 255.255.255.0"
in /etc/rc.conf.
ifconfig shows:
xl0: flags=8943<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
options=3<rxcsum,txcsum>
inet 10.1.2.15 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.1.2.255
inet 10.1.2.126 netmask 0xffffffff broadcast 10.1.2.126
ether 00:00:5e:00:01:02
media: Ethernet 10baseT/UTP (10baseT/UTP <half-duplex>)
I tried:
ifconfig xl0 10.1.2.15 netmask 255.255.255.0 mediaopt full-duplex
since it is connected to a full-duplex switch.
However, network throughput will crawl, i.e, for example, listening to an mp3 from
this machine will give 1 sec. of
audio, then 1 sec. of silence, then 1 sec. of audio, and so on.
Any hint? Is full-duplex known to be broken on this card? Do I do something wrong?
bye & Thanks
av.
P.S. I almost forgot:
uname -a gives:
