sknks, when using a 10Mbps pcmcia network interface, the Network Utilisation (TaskMan) indicates increasing usage as i increase network traffic (downloads etc), all the way upto 88%. however, when using a 100Mbps interface, the same gets stuck at 0.47%, no matter how much traffic i push. networking gurus, anyone to shed some light on this? what / where / why is the bottleneck?

@Moto, the main reason for the above performance is due to the half duplex setting on pcmcia card while full duplex on the other one. The pcmcia card may have some backward compatiblity issues or an older type, thus the card has switched to half duplex. As a remedy, go into the card's properties and manually change settings to full if it allows it. HTHs.
