RE: [PCTECH] Need some Help with Bandwidth problems...

["John Brandt Sr." <pgmr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I had some that did many years ago over a leased line. The more likely case,
is one of the machines thinks that it needs to see if it is the "Master" in
MS File and Print Sharing and it is doing an LM Announce to the entire
network. The other thing may be indexing on an XP or 2K machine on that side
of the network. MTU/RWIN is the packet sizes and how large/small they are
when TCP/IP breaks them up and reassembles them. If you search for MTU
Speed, the old utility may still be out there. If not, I can e-mail it to
you.
I like Ethereal a lot and use it almost every day. I liked Sniffer Basic
better, but someone made off with my CD.

John,

Trying to research MTU/RWIN for 95 :-)  Would that cause this "sudden"
problem ? 

Thanks,

Chuck

Download ethereal and install it on the Win2k. You can see what all of the
machines are sending/receiving. Chances are, if it's not a
virus/adware/malware, it's the MTU/RWIN settings on the Win95 machines. If
you can't find anything and you suspect MTU, let me know. I have a freeware
that I use on Win95/98 machines. 98SE/ME and above don't need it, as far as
I know.
