thanks. your file worked on my system. i've also managed to compile a
version that worked on my system. on RH7, i have to use kgcc to compile my
kernel/modules.

however, that's a weird behaviour on my system.

i'm able to download files using the command line ftp. but if i used the
gFTP or Netscape to download file, it will always stall. this is true
especially for larger files (>20MB) and whenever the connection speed is
fast >100K/sec.

sean, can you help me verify by connecting to a local site (LAN) to download
some big files?

i would to find out if the problem lies on the onboard Realtek NIC on my
Sharp Actius 250 notebook, compilation, or etc...

btw, has anyone experience such scenario before? any suggestions on how i
can "stablise" my connection?

thanks.
