Fault symptom

In application, it is found that the rate is very low upon transmitting files with FTP between PC2 and PC1; check the status of Modem, and the duplex status of Modem is negotiated to 10M/Half.

Analysis and troubleshooting:

Step 1 It can be judged that the cause for low rate is the different duplex modes at the two ends of the line.

Step 2 Configure the duplex modes of Modem and PC1 network adapter as the same, that is 10M/Full or 10M/Half.

Step 3 Transmit via FTP, and the rate becomes higher. This problem is solved.
