Well having problem with the network speed on linux 7.3, i get 70% packed loss on the local network.
I believe u mean RH 7.3 :)).
In windows network its 10Mbps/half duplex..and i checked in linux with mii-tool...its 10Mbps/half duplex only...any suggestions...??
use ethtool to detect change network card settings and u need to be superuser to make changes/see info. Network speed has a lot to so with the order in which the wires are connected before crimping. If that is not the problem then try using the rset8139 utility that comes on the driver floppy with the card.
NIC is realtek based 8139
RTL8139c/d (Dlink-branded) generally do not give problems and are one of the best ones available in the market today.
