Hi, i'm running Telnet 2.3.2 on my MacIIcx using Telnet's built in FTP
software to transfer files etc to and from my Sun UNIX 3/260 fileserver.
I noticed today that i'm getting data transfer rates between the Mac and
the Sun of about 4 or 5 Kb/s and data transfer rates between the Sun and
the Sun (a 3/60) of about 50 Kb/s. Are these figures normal ??? Should
there be such a huge difference ???

My MacIIcx has a Kinetics EtherPortII card with a EtherPort II driver
version 3.25.

Can anyone tell me if I can get data transfer rates any faster than the
above mentioned ones ???


Thanks in advance for all those who reply


best regards
