If the Linux box can reach 950 Mbits/sec consistently, this box should be able to as well.Īlso, if you're wondering about the medium, this is over the same cable.I'm switching back and forth.Īny suggestion or ideas would be really welcome.
Much better, but still not really taking advantage of the full capabilities of the network. However, finally, I tried a 64 Kb window size with the new drivers, and finally an improvement! $ iperf -c ipserver -w64k On the Security tab, click the Trusted Sites icon. Make sure Include subfolders is selected and then click Next. I went to Broadcom's site, downloaded the latest drivers for the card and installed. In Internet Explorer, click Tools, and then click Internet Options. Right-click Broadcom NetXtreme 57xx Gigabit Controller and select Update driver.-Select Browse my computer for driver software to use the driver that you have downloaded.-In the Search for driver software in this location field, enter D:\drivers. I noticed the Windows iperf tests said that the TCP window size was 8 Kb by default (as opposed to 16 Kb on Linux, so I modified my test to reflect that. I spent around a day trying to get equivalent speeds on them, but couldn't get above 200 Mbits/sec. We have a bunch of Windows XP 64-bit machines that use Broadcom NetXtreme 57xx cards. The desktop computer has an ASUS P5KR mobo with onboard Marvell gigabit NIC adapter.

The manual in PDF format states that it supports jumbo frames. I just upgraded the old switch to a new gigabit one (DLINK DGS-1008D). Our linux boxes, which use a Intel Corporation 82566DM-2 Gigabit nic (according to lspci), consistently get over 900 mbits/sec: iperf -c ipserverĬlient connecting to ipserver, TCP port 5001 I have a DELL Latitude D830 with the integrated Broadcom NetXtreme 57XX NIC. We've just installed gigabit switches at work, and things on the Linux side are going well.
