Mac_Gyver Posted June 23, 2003 Share Posted June 23, 2003 Hi @ll, 1 week ago I came back from vacation. Then my brother turned his pc on (he has 2 ethernet cards, 1 for internet and 1 for network) and the ethernet card for internet didnt worked. Then we tried the card in my pc. didnt worked too. now I bought 2 new D-Link DFE-530TX card's . I gave my old one (D-Link DFE-528) to my brother. Now I took 1 D-Link DFE-530TX into my pc, installed the drivers and everything worked. But now the problem: We use internet connection sharing and if i try to download something i get only 7 Kb/sec (http + ftp) ... normally I could get 90 kb/sec . I have the same problem if I try to download something from my brothers network ftp (before i had 1 mb/sec) ... hope you can help me :cry: . Thanx A1ph4z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac_Gyver Posted June 23, 2003 Author Share Posted June 23, 2003 Hmm ... but the problem was not before we bought new ethernet cards ... I have the problem also when I'm direct on internet ... normally it looks like this: ME <-> Switch <-> Brother <-> Internet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Veteran Posted June 23, 2003 Veteran Share Posted June 23, 2003 this started after you bought the new NICs? uninstall them and reinstall them in a different PCI slot, then try getting the newest drivers for them and make sure they're WHQL drivers; i've had probs before if the drivers weren't WHQL drivers.

kjordan2001 Posted June 23, 2003 Share Posted June 23, 2003 Are you limited on IPs or something? Why not just get a hub or a router so you don't have to go though his computer? :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muffzilla Posted June 23, 2003 Share Posted June 23, 2003 I was once able to share a cable connection by plugging both computers into a switch, and plugging the cable modem into the switch as well. Try that. Can't hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
