I have no additional information for you. With this card, I get about the same throughput you do. The card definitely does negotiate a 100baseT connection; a conventional NE2000 type card could not reach this speed on a 10baseT link. I had assumed that the card was doing some sort of internal throttling, since it could never keep up with a 100baseT link anyway. However, it is (as far as I know) not possible that you could get 6-8 mb/sec under windows with this card. The maximum transfer rate for the 16-bit PCMCIA bus is only about 2 mb/sec, and it is not possible to do better than that without going to a CardBus card. -- Dave |
