It doesn't make a difference to speed whether you use auto or full-duplex, as long as the ports at both sides of a wire are set the same way. Generally I recommend leaving things set to auto (note: don't change duplex settings remotely unless you have a clear plan of what you're doing, why, and which order to change things. :-) > My doubt ... > Why windows vista on both sides have speed up to 10mb/s when a do an > download ?

How about a simpler test where you change fewer variables (and don't involve the speed of disks on the machines)? Maybe run iperf on both OpenBSD and Windows, then you're doing the same test on both OS, and can test OpenBSD->Windows, Windows->OpenBSD, Windows->Windows, OpenBSD->OpenBSD. > 2011/3/16 Rick Ballard <[email protected]> >> The Ubiquity is likely an unmanaged device oh, they're quite smart actually. *like* :)
