Since we upgraded to kernel 2.6.8 our download rate never gets higher than 10kB/sec. Upload remains at original rate. This problem does not occur with previous kernels (works fine again after downgrading to 2.6.7, without changing anything at the kernel config). There are no speed issues when transfering on the LAN, only when downloading something from the internet We have ruled out the following: Network source is slow (we were testing with the same FTP server all the time, from which we normally download at 10MB/sec) We tested with 3 different systems and network cards, and they all have the same problem, and only with kernel 2.6.8 any thoughts?
