| 105600 | 2002-12-13 02:03:00 | I have 2 AMD PC's (1800XP and 2000XP) running WinXP, linked together via network cards. The 1800 machine has a NI200 adsl modem card connected to Xtra. Both machines are able to access the Internet, E-mail, MSN etc but the 1800 machine is fast while the 2000 machine is slow. Very slow. Can I expect both machines to access the ADSL line at the same speed? Do I need to adjust settings for this to happen? Any ideas would be appreciated. Manny |

| 105602 | 2002-12-13 04:39:00 | The 1800 machine may be enjoying the lion's share as the ADSL card is under it's direct control. I have seen other enquiries the same, and don't believe there is an easy solution. I share an ADSL line, and all seem to shre OK, but I don't share it via an internal card, it used a router on the network so all PC's seem to have equal status. |

| 105604 | 2002-12-13 11:01:00 | what sort of speeds? mayby one has had the mtu values tweaked which can make one pc slower than the other. | tweak'e (174) | ||
