hmm. i have this problem too with cable through a (pc box) router (both linux-2.4 and openbsd-3.0). for what its worth, someone on a (competent) irc channel mentioned that this problem left them when they impelemented fair queueing (or something that sounds similar) on their router box. since i havent played with bsd kernels, i have yet to try this out. but if i ever get around to it (might go back to linux on the router soon anyway), ill fire off some info to the list -- daniel brown UT CS undergrad _______________________________________________ Siglinux mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.utacm.org/mailman/listinfo/siglinux
