When I want to benchmark something I just download a large file with a good FTP program, sometimes off the internet or maybe off another machine on the network if the connection is fast enough that the internet may be a bottleneck. That's as good a benchmark as needed, really.


+1

I always use FTP across my LAN in both directions to test the speed of a particular piece of hardware or IP stack.

So far Roadshow is the fastest of all the various 68k and PPC stacks I've used but I am yet to try Jens' suggested tweaks to AmiTCP.

@amigakit

When are you going to update you current EasyNet with AmiTCP4?
Will it get the packet fix patch included? http://aminet.net/comm/tcp/AmiTCP_PacketFix.lha
Is the Xsurf-100 ethernet package going to be updated accordingly?

Every EasyNet wireless package we sell, a percentage in revenue goes back to Neil to pay him for his work and to encourage further development of the driver: you may have noticed the new v2.5 revision out last week from him.

New wireless features in EasyNet which are not available through the Aminet packages.



Will the new version of "Easynet" support wireless WPA/WPA2 encryption?

WPA normally means "WPA2 Enterprise" these days, but I'm guessing you all mean WPA-PSK. Right?

In the absences of PSK being specifically mentioned, I would say "yes."  I seriously doubt a home environment, and thus our hobby Amigas, would have the functionality let alone the need for 802.1x or RADIUS-based authentication.  Enterprise would require some SSL libraries, as well.

(I know from using the driver that WPA/WPA2 worked via a pre-shared key, so I automatically exclude "enterprise" as an option.)

If otherwise, I would be happily surprised.  I run 802.1x in my home environment because I have a home office and I keep my work systems connected via a VLAN.  I just wish I could get a RADIUS server working properly on my Solaris system.

Regarding performance comparisons between differenct tcp stacks, setting proper tcp values for buffers and cache would increase throughput on any 90's stack, as back then we had dialup internet and weaker hardware. If I remember correctly, Roadshow had very low tcp.send/recv values as default(512byte?),  and if you check config files for modern linux stacks, tcp.send/recv are 256k or more.

As for my personal experience with Roadshow(on morphos), fastest transferrate was 35MB/s with 68K samba 2.2.5 (and we all know smb is slow)

tcp.send/recv for Roadshow was then calculated with my arexx installer script, based on netstack math found in linux forums.

EasyNet is bundled with all our X-Surf 100 network cards so you can get started straight away.  We will have a new update to EasyNet this week which adds configuration options for the X-Surf 100

So, to make sure I fully understand, you are saying the X-Surf 100, the badest-ass native Amiga Zorro network card to ever exist*, comes with a full TCP/IP stack and graphical configuration interface?

* Debate is beyond the scope of this post and left as an exercise for the reader, but most assuredly merits further fully-funded government research.

Yes that's correct when it is bought from us.

AmigaKit is Da Bomb! I will be ordering the PCMCIA ethernet network card for my A1200 wedge just as soon as the new updated easy net software is shipped with the product (or will it not matter to wait for this weeks updated software if I am ordering the PCMCIA ethernet card?)! Been wanting one for a long time as, even though USB ethernet works, it is sloooooow!

@AmigaKit
When might the EasyNet Pro version be available, perhaps? Will the PCMCIA ethernet card take advantage of the new PRO version of EasyNet (I assume with the V4 of AmiTCP)? Also, when I order the PCMCIA ethernet card do I need to specify in the order that I want the EasyNet driver disk and the EasyNet software or will it just come with the order?

Thanks AmigaKit! You ROCK!

Thanks :)

The new EasyNet update will be out this week.

All existing users will be able to upgrade to EasyNet Pro in October - we hope to get it ready in time for Amiwest.  it will work with cards supported at the moment by the standard version.

The driver disk always comes with the respective PCMCIA card as well as the EasyNet software

Yes it does, plus wireless network scanning - a first for Classic Amigas!
