Yes, it was OT and very few of you are interested ;-) However, somebody would like to know who the killer was.
The original subject was "wlan0 is sssloooow [99% SOLVED]" because pinging the Belkin F5D7230-4 wireless router worked from Windows but not from Linux. The answer is: because Windows sends ICMP messages with 32 bytes of data, Linux sends them with 56 bytes of data. Moreover, Linux IP datagrams have the DF (don't fragment) bit set, Windows ones have not. On Linux, ping -s 15 192.168.2.2 works. Cheers Sergio -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
