Those cards are really driving me nuts. Between two r8169 cards, one on Athlon with kernel 2.4.24, one on Athlon with 2.6.5 or 2.4.24, I get 90Mbit/s in one direction and 39Mbit/s in the other using iperf and TCP. With iperf and UDP they deliver 100Mbit/s resp. 230Mbit/s depending on the direction. Crosschecking with my PowerBook (OS X) shows that I can get 844Mbit/s (UDP) or 572Mbit/s (TCP) to one host and 844Mbit/s (UDP) but only 88Mbit/s (TCP) to the other. The environment is switched and changing cables and/or ports doesn't improve the results. Ideas? (Yeah, I'll get Intel NICs RSN...)
