    Hi,

    I have had the 8204 for a couple of days now and I'm having a serious problem with the network connection, it's extremly slow. I also had the problem with the NIC constanly resetting itself but solved that with the EEPROM-update from Intel.

    But that didn't help the fact that the connection is extremly slow. In my house I have a 100(down)/10(up) dedicated connection and after some tests it show that the 8204 gets about 330kbit/s while my stationary gets, on the same connection, about 20Mbit/s downstream.

    Any ideas?

    //Regards; Magnus (Sweden)
