PS: are you really getting 30Mb/s and 90Mb/s, or are those typos? A 2002
laptop CPU is WAY too weak for Gig speeds, but it should be able to do 80Mb/s
no problem. With TCP you need to run the test for at LEAST a few minutes due
to TCP slow start.

Subject: [Iperf-users] Please help! Unexpected throughput for gigabit
Hi,
Newbie here, to iperf and much networking.
Have upgraded my pc at home to gigabit adaptor (Intel Pro/1000 MT) and was
excited to hook up my laptop and run iperf to see the awesome 10x speed
increase ;)
With 100 mbps I averaged approx 30,000 Kbits/sec. When I reran with the
gigabit PCI adaptor, I only got up to about 90,000 Kbits/sec.
I really need some help figuring out why! I have checked cables and they are
Cat6 or Cat5e. The router is a high end Netgear (WNDR3700v2) and the lights
show green (gigabit). The laptop connection shows gigabit, as does the pc. I
ran all the tests that come with the desktop adaptor, and they all pass.
This is an old PC - 2002 - Dell Dimension 8200. Can that affect things?
Where should I look now?
Please help!!
thanks,
David
