I have a Linksys EtherFast 10/100 CardBus PC Card network card installed =
on a Laptop running Debian 2.2r2.  I get about 16k/s through the network =
from the laptop to a windows box.  The LAN is operating at 100mbps.  I =
have tested the LAN with 2 windows boxes and both maintained a decent =
throughput rate (no firm numbers, but it took about 3 seconds to copy an =
8mb file between the windows box, compared to 30mins between laptop and =
windows).  I know these speeds should be faster.  How can I speed them =
up?  I suspect that I may be using the wrong tulip module.  I'm using =
the one that came with Debian, do I need to use another?  Any other =
ideas?

Thanks
