I would like some recommendations on network adaptor configs because I had this setup before and was getting 70 - 80 kbs/s, which is nice and fast.  I'm not only getting 45 - 50 kbs/s copy speeds.  My old cisco router died and I replaced with a Netgear router.

 

I have the Super C2SEE mothboard with the gig port.  My pc has the evga X58 3 with gig too.  My Netgear router confirms I'm connected at 1000 Full.

 

Some settings that I have enabled are;

 

Jumbo frames on my pc adaptor and my switches.

Flow control is enabled on everything

 

My pc is Win 7  64bit

 

On my netgear rounter, the only settings to change are RIP direction - which is set to BOTH.  The other setings is RIP version, which is disabled.

 

I have both my pc and unraid server directly connected to the Netgear N900 router.

 

I'm running v5 rc6 8168 TEST

 

Any idea why my speeds are down?

Test the network with the iperf add-on available through unmenu.

I"m on version 5, no unmenu

 

I"m on version 5, no unmenu

 

unmenu work with version five. You can comment it out of the go file to disable it when this is resolved.

can anyone answer the questions on recommended network adaptor settings?  Do you use Flow Control?  What speeds are most people getting, or better yet what should I be expecting?

The default settings are recommended.
