| |
I just compiled 1.3.99, and the interactive response when dialed up with pppd is *unusable*, ftp'ing doesn't seem too bad, but it's a little slower too.
1.3.99: compiled with kerneld and modules support, ppp, serial, slhc is compiled as modules. but not using kerneld, I can't get it to work (it doesn'ty do anything). I'm dialed up to a TS that is connected to a ATM network, and plains is also on that network, and I'm adding a ping here to show that obviously something is wrong. Sometimes the time will jump up, it never did this before. the times are also way big. Check below for a 1.3.97 ping. I notice this easily when just telnetting. It takes 3-4 seconds before it actually connects(very unusual), and when I type in my username, the send light on the modem doesn't light up for a least 2 seconds. Using pine is almost impossible. I used it for a couple of minutes, but I gave up and rebooted to 1.3.97. Could all of this be cause by the modules? This is the first time I've gotten them to work, but they seem fine otherwise.

1.3.97: comiled as one, not modules or anything. This one works great, and the networking is the best. Way better than 1.3.85 which was the last kernel I tried. I do get a little packet-loss here too, but I just did another ping, and I got 0. ping from 1.3.97: PING plains.nodak.edu (134.129.111.64): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 134.129.111.64: icmp_seq=1 ttl=254 time=261.7 ms 64 bytes from 134.129.111.64: icmp_seq=2 ttl=254 time=230.6 ms 64 bytes from 134.129.111.64: icmp_seq=3 ttl=254 time=190.2 ms 64 bytes from 134.129.111.64: icmp_seq=4 ttl=254 time=190.2 ms 64 bytes from 134.129.111.64: icmp_seq=5 ttl=254 time=190.2 ms 64 bytes from 134.129.111.64: icmp_seq=7 ttl=254 time=180.2 ms 64 bytes from 134.129.111.64: icmp_seq=8 ttl=254 time=190.2 ms 64 bytes from 134.129.111.64: icmp_seq=9 ttl=254 time=190.2 ms 64 bytes from 134.129.111.64: icmp_seq=10 ttl=254 time=180.5 ms 64 bytes from 134.129.111.64: icmp_seq=11 ttl=254 time=180.5 ms 64 bytes from 134.129.111.64: icmp_seq=12 ttl=254 time=180.2 ms 64 bytes from 134.129.111.64: icmp_seq=14 ttl=254 time=180.2 ms 64 bytes from 134.129.111.64: icmp_seq=15 ttl=254 time=180.2 ms 64 bytes from 134.129.111.64: icmp_seq=16 ttl=254 time=190.2 ms 64 bytes from 134.129.111.64: icmp_seq=17 ttl=254 time=210.2 ms 64 bytes from 134.129.111.64: icmp_seq=18 ttl=254 time=180.2 ms 64 bytes from 134.129.111.64: icmp_seq=19 ttl=254 time=180.2 ms 64 bytes from 134.129.111.64: icmp_seq=20 ttl=254 time=160.6 ms 64 bytes from 134.129.111.64: icmp_seq=21 ttl=254 time=170.2 ms

Hopefully this will help someone :)
