Slow ethernet in linux
#12

I am getting around 1MB/s, with 2MB/s peak (wget -O /dev/null from internet for specific big file), when on other computer on the same network I am getting 30-45MB/s, and maybe 90MB/s during good time of a day. I will probably do some testing on local network strictly, but I done some ssh tests, and it isn't looking pretty.

Forcing to 100 autoneg off using ethtools, make it even worse. I am getting 50-100KB/s!  Forcing to 1000 autoneg off makes it do not work at all.

ip -s l shows no errors:

2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
   link/ether 7a:6e:63:xx:xx:xx brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
   RX: bytes  packets  errors  dropped overrun mcast  
   2277867123 3481188  0       0       0       0      
   TX: bytes  packets  errors  dropped carrier collsns
   6628900774 4981672  0       0       0       0


In dmesg I do see a lot of these errors, every few seconds, especially during heavy network use

[21189.979887] RTL871X: nolinked power save leave
[21191.275452] RTL871X: nolinked power save enter

Ok. Somehow magically it improved.

echo on > /sys/class/net/eth0/power/control

made me able to copy data over ssh from other Linux box (capable of easily doing 100MB/s), with about 22MB/s (tested using 1.2GB file using dd bs=64k from sshfs file).

I turned it back to auto:

echo auto > /sys/class/net/eth0/power/control

and it shows now 25.6MB/s

Not bad.
Hi, I have same issue as you, with autoneg on, i have only 3-5kb/s 100mb autoneg off 100 improved it to 120kb/s, and autoneg off 1000 is not working at all

i tried echo on > /sys/class/net/eth0/power/control as you suggested, but its not chaning anything, probably not related to the issue. did you change anything else in the meantime?
can you tell me what kernel do you use?

do anyone know working fix for terribly slow ethernet?
