Take your 30000Kbs, divide it by 8, you get 375KB/s. Hint: 8bits = 1byte. Debian is reporting the kiloBYTES per second (~417, as you reported), windows was reporting kiloBITS per second.Actually, re-read the output he posted from mii-tool, pasted below for convenience. It indicates he is in fact running 100Mbps full duplex already.Output fra mii-tool: eth0: negotiated 100baseTx-FD, link ok^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^product info: vendor 00:00:00, model 0 rev 0 basic mode: autonegotiation enabled basic status: autonegotiation complete, link ok capabilities: 100baseTx-FD 100baseTx-HDJacob
Ah, Touche!I did see that full duplex line, however, if all he is doing is transfering data, he should be get approximately twice that on a full duplex network. it looks as if part of his network isn't on full. I could be wrong but it was just a suggestion (based on the performance). Double check your windows drivers and make sure it's on in full.
