A little hint how to test it would be fine too because me normal user see in this thread that the download rate is bad under certain cases. But my problem with this very interestic informations here is that my download rate seems to be okay (about 700 KB/s with my 6 Mbit/s download flat rate) if i download something from a server in usa to here which is in germany. Could this be because my chain at home looks like this Desktop PC (ARCH) <-> Router/Server (SuSE) <-> Cable Modem and so the suse pc (where i run squid as transparent proxy) and/or the cable modem "repairs" the problems with this factor of the tcp window of my arch pc? Sorry, if this question is too stupid.-) See you, Attila _______________________________________________ arch mailing list [email protected] http://www.archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
