Home network-upload speed over ten times faster than download speed?
I have a homemade RAID backup server that I consistently upload my files to. Today, I tried to download from it, and it's pathetically slow.
Computer: Intel Mac Mini w/ OS X 10.4, 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet card, using Airport for Internet connection
Server: old 1 GHz Athlon PC w/ FreeNAS, 10/100 Mbps Ethernet card
They are directly connected using a patch cable (no hub or router). The upload speed to the server maxes out at ~9 megabytes per second (that's bytes, not bits), while the download speed maxes out at ~90 kilobytes per second.
Any ideas where I should start looking? Your input is most appreciated!
Check the settings on both the NICs and make sure they are set to autonegotiate. If they are set to autonegotiate, then do some experimentation and lock them both to 100 full and so on until you get satisfactory performance. Never use any of the half duplex settings.
