1 Gigibit Ethernet - Slow?
I bought 2 Dlink DGE-530T 1000 Mbps (1 Gbps) Ethernet cards to replace my
10/100 Mbps. To test it, I installed on 2 WinXP computers and linked with a Cat 5 crossover cable. The icons on the system tray showed "Speed: 1 Gbps" on both computers Then, I tried to download some files form one computer to another using both Share drive and Webserver, the result was so disappointed... on average it's about 3 MB/sec which is about 24 Mbps -- 24% of 100 Mbps!!! My old 10/100 Mbps could do the same???!!!! I assume 1000 Mbps would give me at least 200 Mbps in trasfer speed! Am I correct? Did I do something wrong? Is there something I need to setup in Windows, registry or some settings in driver to get faster speed? please help. Thanks |
