I have a SpeedTouch modem connected via eth1 to an FC1 box. Throughput via wget etc, is rather slow, say 25KBps. I'd expect at least 4x that. Interestingly, ifconfig ppp0 shows a receive problem -- more errors than rx packets: ppp0 Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol inet addr:66.96.18.66 P-t-P:69.90.48.1 Mask:255.255.255.255 UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST MTU:1492 Metric:1 RX packets:597 errors:1241 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:567 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:3 RX bytes:365318 (356.7 Kb) TX bytes:36423 (35.5 Kb) Any ideas on where to start looking? -- James Lemke jim@xxxxxxxxxxxx Orillia, Ontario 1992 ST1100, STOC #3750; FWD# M:245401 H:246889 "Time is the fire in which we burn."
