Hi,
I have set up a linux powered (RedHat, PII 400)
gateway for a few home computers to utilise the @home
service. While I can get 200-400 Kb/sec from say
mirror.aarnet.edu.au with most of these machines, I
find net usage with the gateway itself is almost
impossible. The speeds are appalling, for example,
Netscape's status bar displaying speeds of bytes per
second, and frequent stalls.
I know this is not a thorough description of what's
going on (there could be a thousand things at fault),
but is this a common problem with misconfigured
gateways?
Considering that normal speeds apply everywhere
except when accessing the internet from the gateway,
what areas should I be inspecting?
Thanks,
Alex
