Slow local network upload speed [SOLVED]
I've got a local network upload speed that just will not go above about 100kps. Download speeds are comparable both within the local network and from the internet (about 1.1 to 1.3 M). I've got the Linksys WUSB54gc usb wireless adapter (rt73usb driver) and running fully updated Arch64. Other wireless windows machines in the network get about 1.1M upload speeds (within the network), and this machine running Ubuntu 9.04 (64bit) also gets great upload speeds in the local network.
What would be different between Arch and Ubuntu/other machines that would be limiting the upload speed so drastically? I'm not even quite sure where to start troubleshooting! Again, download speed is fine....it's only uploading to other machines in the local network that is a problem.
Thanks very much!
Scott
edit: This happens with both with samba and ssh(scp) transfers.

Re: Slow local network upload speed [SOLVED]
Ok, fixed. Netcfg was not setting the options correctly for this wireless adapter.
Added the following to my network profiles:
IWCONFIG="rate 54M mode managed"
Which, by the way, is different than the example, which uses IWOPTS.
