Ok, I tried that under the shell, then in an XTerm window. I also tried=
=20PING in
both.

1. telnet to www.teleport.com 80 from the shell gave me the whole web p=
age in
small bursts.

2. telnet from and XTERM the exact same way got me logged in, and gave =
nothing
after typing GET /

3. Ping under shell to voicenet.com (a site on the other side of the US=
=20from me)
gave me 4% packet loss out of 22 packets sent.

4. The same thing under XTerm gave me 42% packet loss with 23 packets s=
ent.

I also tried the whole thing with AmiTCP on the Amiga side... Telnet wa=
s too
fast to read, and ping went 100 pings with no loss.

So does this mean I have the PPP interface configured wrong and I am sp=
illing my
data? Also do the slower X11 results mean that X-Windows is not somethi=
ng to run
across a 28.8 line?

Any advice would be great. For your information I am setting my serial =
line as
/dev/ttym0 and the speed at 57600 or 38400 (no difference). My MTU and =
MRU are
at 1500 as my ISP requested. and I am using CRTSCTS in my options file.

(For those not familiar with my original question, I was asking why Mos=
aic and
Arena were not getting web-pages)

Nick :)
