About a mouth ago I was transferring data from my MAC II (using NCSA
Telnet V2.3) to a VAX VMS system running VMS 4.7 and The Wollongong
Group software WIN/TCP V3.2 

My Mac II is connected to the Ethernet via a Kinetics Etherport II card.
The Vax is an 11/785 with a DEUNA card. 

The Transfer speed was about 150Kb/sec......Then IT happened... 

The Vax was upgraded to VMS 5.1 and the TWG software was upgraded to 5.0

Now my transfer speed is 25Kb/sec (6 times sssssllloooowwweeeerrrr) 

I have another setup that uses a Kinetics Fast/Path-4 as a router
between the Appletalk and the Ethernet and the rate went from about
40-50Kb/sec to 9kb/sec....... 

Has anyone else seen this problem....or know of a solution.... 

Thanks,
John Gartley
