Sorry for all the posts, I'm just in the middle of optimizing this thing.
How can I make sure flow control is enabled or disabled? I have an Intel MT/1000. I see where the driver options are, but I don't know what my choices are to change it to anything other than "default". Thanks.
Not sure for the MT/1000 as you will have to check with Intel. My Intel Pro 1000 settings show Flow Control in driver settings (Ctrl. + Alt. + T) so I can set mine 0-3 (0=none, 1=Rx only, 2=Tx only, 3=Rx&Tx).
