I also experienced bad transfert rate (SLIP) since I installed
the 1.0beta pre-release distribution. I was planning to do some test
in ADOS with AmiTCP, just to make sure that the problem is not on
my internet provider site. (I've got a real problem here, something
that took about 1/2 an hour to transfert, now would take between 3 to
4 hours [14.4k]).

Does everybody running 1.0beta noticed such behavior?
