Very Computer

Hi!

When Im pinging with packet sizes > 1024 bytes I get more and more
packet loss. The border of 100% packet loss seems to be at around 1140
bytes packet size.

I use a no-name NE2000-comp. ISA ethernet card, its a RJ45 thin
ethernet twisted pair-connection to a router.

The other hard- and software is:

Pentium 133, ASUS T2P4-MB, Linux 2.0.30

Anyone an idea?

Ciao,

-Axel.

Are you pinging ip's internally in your own network or externally
to the outside world?
If packet loss is internal,check for ethernet collision (if that's what
you are using. Collision can be causeed by bad hubs, tranceivers or
cables.
If packet loss is external and you have an data circuit >=56K.
Have the telco check the line provisioning. Some ISP's use B8ZS line
encoding while others use AMI. Make sure your telco is using the same
kind that you ISP is using.
If you have a dail-up connection, I can't help you.
Hope that helped a little.
