>> I get just over 90Mbps based on tests without IPCop and about 25Mbps >> with IPCop. The test site doesn't know whether IPCop is in-line or I use IPCop on a Roger's cable modem unlimited business plan in Atlantic Canada The box is a pentium III with probably a gig of memory. base IPcop 2.x install (not sure when it was last updated, but quite a while ago. Two PCI NICs and the motherboard NIC. Using Speedtest.net on a Toronto server I have seen numbers go as high as 80 for a burst, and consistently I can get 55Mbps down. I suspect that our 100Mbps switch and Cat5 infrastructure is more the limiter than IPCop. I also suspect that our older PC's may be the speed limiters - when we get a newer higher speed PC it usually shows higher speeds. Is it realistic to expect more than 80Mbps over Cat5 (100Mbps) infrastructure? Gotta upgrade to gigabit switches (and replace a LOT of wires...)
