Apache Very Slow to Load

I've got an ADSL connection to the net (512kbps up / 256kbps down), and it's
not d/ling or uploading anything else.

I only get 300-400 kb/sec upload to the Linux box from my PC, but then its
wireless, so only 22Mbps... though 22Mbps should be much faster than that.

I'm not sure what to do...
Thanks

Adam

To me this sounds as if it might be a duplex mismatch.
check on your linux box with mii-tool possibly mii-diag how your network
card is set.
make SURE that the router and linux has EXACTLY the same settings
if auto both
10/full both
100/full both
10/half both
100/half both

you can test with
# mii-tool -F 10baseT-FD
which sets 10/full and see what happens.

And if it is 100Mbit is it at least a cat 5 cable???
Good luck.
Ps couldnt reach your link to test it.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

Hi

TTL too low?

what do you get if you ping the machine from another local machine and vice
versa?

i run a k5-166 with 192MB ram apache 1.3.27 on my cable line for testing and
it seems ok from outside.
(all via router and Cat5 but same principle)

<a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://homedsl.cjb.net" target="_blank">http://homedsl.cjb.net</a> should find default server.

It all seems ok, and I've got a CAT5 cable connecting them.

Still no luck.

Your TTL from here was 21, now i cannot even ping you so i guess your
offline.

Can you not reach the webserver with <a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://192.168.0.100" target="_blank">http://192.168.0.100</a>

too low and makes it difficult to reach.

Thanks for the reply. You should be able to ping me... My IP is 81.79.53.92.
the webserver is currently running on port 8080, so <a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://81.79.53.92:8080" target="_blank">http://81.79.53.92:8080</a>
should work...

I can't reach 81.79.53.92 myself, but I can access the server with
192.168.0.200

Thanks all for your help...

It seems that the router was the problem... I got a replacement from D-Link,
and it seems to be runnning at a proper speed now.
