It has an Asrock Mobo with an onboard 10/100 LAN using the Via chipset. I get very poor performance when "get"ting files from the LAN. eg 100Mb file took 8 hours. The "put" process for the same file took around 15 minutes. When I disabled the onboard LAN and installed a old 10Mb LAN card using the Realtek chipset. The "get" performance improved dramatically; it took around 10 minutes. I have also experienced the same thing with a PC-Chips Mobo, also with an onboard Via 10/100 LAN. My own theory is some sort of buffering problem. Has any-one got any other explanations? TIA - Keith
