I had similar problems a couple of years ago at a client of mine i am sure it is either down to having spanning tree protocol turned on on your network switches commonly turned on by default on cisco switches or you have to set the duplexing and port speed options manually for the particular ports you are working with on your switch ie instead of Auto:Auto it should read Full:100 Hope this makes sense It is generally good practice to turn off spanning tree protocol on switches when dealing with appletalk or appletalk over IP don't ask me why i have solved that many network problems by simply doing this Good luck and post results i am new here and I would like to know if my advice is useful "Amos Barnett" <usenetreply2@removethisfirst.currawong.net> wrote in message news:3CFF47A6.4030105@removethisfirst.currawong.net... > phil wrote: > > I have being doing some simple timing tests between my G4 and G3 and have > > found that appleshare/appletalk is transferring files 50% faster than > > appleshare/IP. > > I only have a small network of three macs and one pc connected with a brand > > new 100mbps compatible switch.
