Hello again,
I am stuck with this problem:
I have:
One Linux NAT Box.
One internet connection.
100 clients in the LAN.
Test 1:
- Connect only one client to the server and download from it a file.
-> The total speed recorded on the server is maximum (as expected -
let''s
say 128KB)
Test 2:
- Connect all 100 clients (somewhere in the evening) and let them browse -
download, etc
- Try to download the same file from the same client to make sure that the
bandwidth is used at it''s maximum capacity
-> The total speed recorded on the server is half then before (around 64KB)
There is no load on the server (uptime shows 0.00 0.00 0.00)
I changed distributions and hardware to make sure...
I changed the computer to a P4 2GHz - 512 RAM
The same problem appears during high traffic hours.
Can u tell me if there is a limit in how many connection a Linux router
might serve?
Can u spot another problem that might decrease the speed in such a way?
Please help... I am lost! I cannot see where the problem is...
Thanks in advance,
Mihai VLAD
