Hi Wolfgang, Are you getting any errors in your 'Dyn Stat' window, either CRC or BER? We don't use PPP ourselves (we use FR here and use routing not bridging) but haven't had any performance issues from the hardware. The only other thing that somewhat jumps out at me, is that you're using compression on the link which is going to add some amount of degregation on uncompressable files, like the one you're probably FTP'ing. IMOE, compression on links above 128K seem to be generally anti-productive -- of course a thousand people will probably tell me I'm wrong, but in general that's what I've found. > From: "Dr. Wolfgang Beneicke" <Wolfgang.Beneicke at mpimf-heidelberg.mpg.de> > Date: Wed, 18 Apr 2001 23:08:12 +0200 > Subject: (ASCEND) DSLpipe too slow? > > Hi, > > today I have set up my first SDSL pipelines (DSL-HS-2.3).
