Ah ha!
Things are not as bad as they seem.
If I do cat /dev/zero | nc -u -p 1666 doris.namkas 1666
and set up doris.namkas to receive correctly then knetload reports
around 98000KBit/s which doesn't seem too bad.
Doing it the other way round reports the same (ish, though in this
case, the sendi
Ok people, do not use the drivers from scyld - ONLY use the modified
ones in the 2.4 kernels.
I say this because having compiled and installed the ones from
scyld I've had many lockups and the network just seems to die - you

Well,
Well, that's all gone through and worked - not quite as simple as I
thought, but I got there. Network performance seems a little faster
than before but still a little slow compared with what I thought
would have been possible with a 100TX crossover network. Must be

Yes, it's a 2.4.9 kernel on both machines with the included natsemi
driver.
dmesg reports much the same for both machines:
eth0: link is back. Enabling watchdog.
