Hello, I have just recently installed Debian and I am having some serious network problems with direcpc (win98 with winroute proxy) I am running kernel 2.4.9 with a 3com 905TX. All is good on the local network. No problems surfing the web, it is when I start to download anything 100K or larger it will stall, I will even stall doing an update in dselect. I believe this to be a problem with the sattelite and latency, however this exact machine less then a week ago had redhat on it for over a year with no problems. Please note that I can surf, pull email, so the network settings I believe are correct. I think the problem is more to the latency of the dish and timeout settings. If you can help, this new debian user will be very happy!!!!
Thanks, Topp Dogg
