Hello,
I would like to ask for some assistance from those using Cable Modems
(@home, RoadRunner, etc). The test scenario is as follows:
1) Open an ncftp to, say the MUO site or other (your choice)
2) Download several 1 to 2 Meg. files, one at a time.
3) Note the throughput (24.2kpbs, for example)
4) Execute the following command to the interface to your cablemodem
#ifconfig eth0 txqueuelen 1
5) Repeat steps 1-3
6) Did the throughput change?
I did this on my system, and it changed significantly - from 5kpbs to
25kpbs .
Thanks,
Ron
