10.04 Slow Bridged networking [SOLVED]
Posted: 7. May 2010, 10:27
Hello,
I have VB 3.1.6 installed on Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit with 32-bit WinXP and Ubuntu guests.
Guests get IP's and can access the network OK. Ping and UDP work as expected. TCP connections to other machines on the network are VERY slow (often 10k/s).
I tried installing the VB 3.2.0 beta - same problem.
Finally found this post on VMWare on Ubuntu:

And the solution worked for me (eth1 is my bridge interface):
ethtool -K eth1 sg off rx off tx off tso off
add this line to /etc/rc.local and Bob's your Uncle.
Everything works as it should and life is good
Cheers,
Jerry.
