I am having problems with my high speed internet running under red hat 7.1 and i was hoping somebody out there could help me out.
Basically the problem is download speed... for example under a windows ftp connection (with the windows box plugged into the cable modem) my download rate goes at 350k/s (which is normal for my provider). When i attempt the same download from linux (this time with the linux box connected to the cable modem) the download rate is a pathetic 94k/s. I am no expert by any means at tweaking networking in linux, but i do know that it IS capable of running at high speed, because my LAN always runs at at least 3MB /s. it just seems to be the internet connection. But, as i said, when the internet is plugged to the windows machine it seems ok.. does anyone have any ideas???
thanks a lot!!
