Hi folks, since 2.6.19 I have the problem that I get lousy transmit speeds of < 1 mbit/s.

Here is a quick test, the 5th column is the transfer speed in mbit/s:

From the affected machine to my laptop over WLAN (the affected machine
is connected to a Fast Ethernet switch):

$ nttcp -r -l 1400 -n 500 dose
l 700000 8.16 0.04 0.6867 155.5469 824 101.04 22887.6 1 700000 8.15 0.00 0.6873 560000.0000 500 61.37 50000000.0
Only 0,68 mbit/s during transmit. :-(

From my laptop to the affected machine:

$ nttcp -l 1400 -n 5000 dose
l 7000000 2.21 0.03 25.3427 1999.8572 5000 2262.74 178558.7 1 7000000 2.25 0.07 24.8363 823.4810 9268 4110.41 136286.1
This is ok, 25 mbit/s during receive, limited by the WLAN in the
laptop.

After reboot:

$ nttcp -l 1400 -n 5000 dose
l  7000000    2.04   0.03   27.5005   1749.8906  5000  2455.40  156240.2
1  7000000    2.08   0.06   26.9843    999.9464  9455  4556.00  168830.2

Now I got 27 mbit/s during receive, that's ok for WLAN.

Sorry, I should give the number for _transmit_ here. This was ok, too.

Regards,
Tino

Most likely, the problem is similar to one I am working. The device_resume code gets run before BIOS. And the BIOS wakeup screws up the device. The proper fix will happen in 2.6.20.
If you are using MSI, turn that off.
