I am having a problem with a realtech card. and I am at a loss to what
the problem is exactly.
Ok here goes, when the card sends data out to the main server it works
fine but when it is recieving data from the server the transfer drops
down in to the range of 50-100 bytes (not kb) per sec, and I start
getting errors on the rx side of the card (if you look in ifconfig that
is.
I had this problem before in windows, and I had fixed it by switching
the card from "forced 10mbit mode" (I have a 10mbit hub/AMDPCI32 10 mbit
card in the server) to "AUTO mode" once I did that the problem went
away, but now that the system has linux on it the problem is back and I
am unsure on how to fix. There dose not seem to be any module parms on
for the device and I am unsure how that card needs to be set up. I did
notice that under linux the card is operating in Half Duplex mode
instead of Full Duplex mode, dose this make any sence? Anyone have this
problem/fixed it? or possibly know what the problem is. Yes I have
checked and made sure that the card is in the Bus Master slot (as per
the faq on the drivers home page) I realy need to get this fixed because
5 hours for a 1.5 meg file is rediculous on a 10mbit conection
Thanks in advance for any help
