Here are the numbers I get when copying a lager file with the same 16-bit card: (a) under Windows98 : 1060kByte/s (about 8.28MBit/s) (b) unter Linux with Jochen's enabler (independent from the choosen mode and independent of using a 10BaseT oder 100BaseT hub): 120kByte/s (about 0.94MBit/s) So indeed I'm never in the 100MBit range with that 16bit card, but for some reason I'm at 11% of the windows performance :-(( Ingo
