Ah right. I did not know that!
Yeah, its a hub. I'll stop trying to set it to full duplex now. I still
have a problem though, the collision rate is 11-12% when copying to the
client and the performance is terrible:
Copying from Server to Client (i.e. receive) 170.3Kb/sec
Copying from Client to Server (i.e. transmit) 7.383Mb/sec
It is 40 times quicker in one direction than the other. Can you give me
a hint where to go from here.
Cheers,
Dave.
