IBrowse2.3 download transfer rate.

[amiwalker]

Hello:

How fast should the download speed be with
A3000D
Warpengine 040 40Mhz
200M fast ram
2M chip ram
GVP Spectrum Gfx card
IBrowse2.3
X-SurfII
OS3.9 (BB2)
Genesis

Right now the max. I can get is ~18K/sec.

I have a Cable modem(Motorolla Surfboard SB5100) connected to a DLink DL704P router from there it branches off to 3 computers and a Playstation2 console.

On the PC I get a download speed of ~300k/sec.

why is the miggy so slow even with all of the other devices off?

My MTU setting is 1500

[amiwalker]

If so, would a Boot ROM help any?

Is there any way to speed up the X-SurfII via sana setting or something.

I read that Miami has a MNI driver that addresses the hardware directly. Is that any faster? I have not tried that option yet, has any one done this?

[amiwalker]

I am running the X-SurfII in half duplex mode.

I do however seem to be having trouble with the Router.

The WAN seems to be locking up! This has happened to me twice, the second one was today. I unplugged the router power cord for a while then re-connected it. it seems to be working for now, but for how long I am not sure!

Since I cannot connect my X-SurfII directly to the cable modem (due to only 1 MAC address setup with my provider) it will be impossible for me to eliminate the router as a difinitive cause of the slow transfers.

I just checked the PC transfer rate through the router. It seems to be running at ~90K/sec.

I may just buy an up-to-date router. Any suggestions as to what make/model?

[amiwalker]

Yes, for a $10.00/month fee.

Way Cooooool!


I am a registered Miami user (not MiamiDX).
As I said in my previous posts, I now use Genesis for tcp/ip. Mainly for the SSL2,3 support.


Is there any hope of increasing the speed on my connection?

I will probably buy another router to replace the sometimes faulty one that locks up from time to time.

[amiwalker]

Interesting. I still don't know where the bottleneck is, I have tried everything that was sugested, except registering a new MAC address with my cable ISP provider, and getting a new router for my network.

I did upgrade the firmware on the router a while back, but I would hope that that would be a good thing as far as preformance goes.

Still confused? I am.

[amiwalker]

Just copying files to/from the PC, I get a transfer rate of ~40K/sec. (X-SurfII set at half duplex).

Which brings me to my next question;

If the LAN should be set for Full Duplex and
If the WAN should be set for Half Duplex,

Then how does one configure for both?

PS:
   I will try ttcp when I have the time to devote to it, I am quite busy with alot of everyday stuff.
