I have a small home 10/100 network of 5 computers.
Lately when I transfer large files (500 MB+ Movie files) my network performance will slowly degrade then drop the connection.
I viewed the bytes sent in 2k Servers performance graphs. It willplug away at full blast for 5 minutes or so then the perfomance will fall. It’s not a straight line but in 25-30 minutes time the graph will go to a flat line with a few small sputs of data then the network conenction will drop.
There havn’t beenany changes I can think of that I have made to the system. This is happening network wide which makes me doubt it’s a cableing issue and there is nothing near the hub to cause any sort of interference.
Any suggestions? Or perhaps links to good network troubleshooting checklists sites?
Thanks in advance,
Brian Wright
