You may be able to tweak your IP config to improve performance.  Check
here for details: http://www.broadbandreports.com/faq/tweaks .  The link
relates to broadband net access but the same concepts apply to any LAN
config.

Subject: [PCTECH] Downloading

I have a pc running win 98se, 450mghz with 128 mb ram that is attached
to a lan. I ran a speed test on it and it tested out at 53-59k. I
attached a laptop to the line and it tested out at 955k. 

I have swapped network cards, checked the mtu setting and it is at 1500.
I used system file checker and no corrupted system files.  I repaired ie
just in case there was a problem with the browser.  The connection is
set to never dial. I have run pest patrol and a full antivirus scan.  I
even did a scan and defrag just in case there was a disk problem. We
also checked to make sure there were no irq conflicts. Anyone ever run
into anything like this?
