A question for you lan experts:
I have a M7.2 box with a cable modem. This is
connected to a local lan with various M$ boxes, via a
10/100 switch. Local lan is 192.168.0.n, assigned with
DHCP from the linux box.
Everything works OK, but ftp & X on the lan are very
slow, with heaps of activity on the hub LED's.
I'm not familiar with this area much, but have the
impression it may be dns related, as I'm not running
the linux box as a dns. I'm wondering if the 192*
addresses are having packets going via the DNS which
is an IP address at my ISP, causing the speed problem.
If anyone can shed any light on the cause (& hopefully
a solution) of the poor local lan performance I'd
appreciate it :-)
