I have no idea what you are trying to accomplish with the above, but it is weird in the extreme. The problem that you are describing sounds like a duplex negotiation problem with your switch. Try setting both sides to full duplex. For the FreeBSD side remove your cronjob and then: ifconfig fxp0 140.113.214.152 netmask 0xffffff00 media 100basetx mediaopt full-duplex You'll also need to modify your /etc/rc.conf as well with the new media/mediaopt so that it is set correctly after a reboot. You'll have to consult your switch manual for how to configure it for full duplex. -DG David Greenman Co-founder, The FreeBSD Project - http://www.freebsd.org President, TeraSolutions, Inc. - http://www.terasolutions.com Pave the road of life with opportunities.

I am quite sure that the Intel 8-port 10/100 Switch work well.
I also tried your suggestion, still not work.
In fact, I used the dc0 network card before.
I thought the problem may cause by dc0, so I buy the fxp0.
Is there any other possibilities?

So you're having the same problem with 'tulip' clones (dc device)? Have you tried using a different cable? Does the Intel switch have any error stats that might give a clue why the performance is bad? What does "ifconfig fxp0" show (speed/duplex) when the performance is low? -DG David Greenman Co-founder, The FreeBSD Project - http://www.freebsd.org President, TeraSolutions, Inc. - http://www.terasolutions.com Pave the road of life with opportunities. State Changed From-To: open->closed Feedback timeout. Most likely a duplex problem. |
