iMac ethernet is slow, internet and wireless fine.
Hi,
In our office we are having trouble with the ethernet speed on one computer. If another computer is pluged into the same network port the speed is fine. This eliminates any cable issues.
When transfering a 600mb the speed is super slow (around 450kb/s). On the same iMac when using wireless the speed jumps to about 4.5mb/s.
I have tested the internet speed on both connections and they are about the same.
When transfering a file to the iMac from another computers public folder on the network the speed is great, we achieved about 45mb/s!
This leads me to think that our server (Xserve intel running 10.5) is slowing down the file transfer speed from our xserve raid on the ethernet connection only for some reason.
It would be great to get some advice on this issue.
Thanks
iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8), Conected to Xserve on 10.5
