Hi all.
I have a problem with my gigabit-LAN. The setup looks like this:
Internet - ClearOS Firewall - Gigabit-switch - clients.
Computer #1 (desktop):
3.4 GHz quadcore, 4GB RAM, onboard LAN (gigabit).
Primary OS: Ubuntu 12.04
Secondary OS: Windows 7
Computer #2 (Windows 2008r2 Server):
3.5 GHz quadcore, 16GB RAM, onboard LAN (gigabit).
The problem is that I can not achive full speed with Ubuntu > Win Server. Maximum speed that I've seen while transfering files is ~25-26MB/s, while Win7 > Win server gives me around 90-110MB/s. So, there's no hardware problem.
From Win Server > Ubuntu desktop the speed is about ~35MB/s.
I have tried with another NIC from Intel (PCI-E gigabit), and got the same poor performance. So what could be the problem here? I've installed the latest drivers for my onboard NIC, without any changes...
