Connectivity Woes
So I’m having a slight issue with this server. It uses a 100Mbit connection between a switch and a seperate router. The connectivity between two directly connected systems, transferring a file seems to stick below a transfer rate of only 6KB/sec. I honestly don’t think this is an issue with my server though. When the server is located at a different location, transfer rates appear normal. Downloading a file of a couple hundred megabytes only takes minutes rather than hours. But here, I don’t know what is holding it back.
Then again, I also don’t have access to the hardware in which all this stuff is connected too. So maybe I’m screwed. But a solution will soon be in place. The plan will soon to be put a network card in an older computer. And leave that computer at a different location. That computer will serve as the location of the server permanently. The only thing that i need to worry about, is the lack of managment to the server locally. As I will be 5 hours away from it.
So soon. Sometime late December my server will be once again placed on a different physical machine. And at a new location. It will still be, once again, used for hosting this ugly blog and be some way of testing stuff. Remotely. MMMMmmmmm internet.
