i have a pc network, in which there is a notebook pc, running ms-dos. it's network connection is over a Xircom pcmcia adapter. when copying data to this computer over the network, I get different = datarates, depending on the pc, initializing the data transfer: copy direction for both examples: win98 pc -> dos pc copy initialized from dos pc (pulling data): about 20mbyte/minute copy initialized from win98 pc (pushing data): about 1mbyte/minute does anyone have an idea where the difference in datarates comes from? thanx! tino -- http://www.piclist.com hint: PICList Posts must start with ONE topic: [PIC]:,[SX]:,[AVR]: ->uP ONLY!
