ok a bit of an update for all. Ive connected the two pcs together with a cable. Im afraid i dont know what kind of cable it is as it came with the modem. I had already tried this cable and it hadnt worked previously. anyway ive messed around with the settings changing and then changing back to how they were. Anyway some option has changed as it appears to be working now...at full capacity. i was able to transfer a 4gb file in about 8 mins-ish!!!
so a big thank you to all who contributed in this thread. On a side note...i was on the Linksys website speaking to their rep...who advised to update to a new firmware.! cheers On 16/05/2008, James Grabham <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > >> It's not simply eight bits per byte for ethernet packets, it's more >> complicated than that and you're not taking into account collisions. >> > > Im a bit confused now... > > so how... > > I mean > > a Byte is 8 bits, a bit being either 1 or 0...
