This article was previously published under Q125322 SYMPTOMS
When using the Client Services for NetWare (CSNW) or Gateway Services for
NetWare (GSNW), you may experience slow performance and data throughput if
multiple frame types are enabled on NetWare servers.
CAUSE
Since a NetWare server can act as a router or translator, converting one
frame type to another, if a Windows NT computer is configured with a frame
type that is different from other client computers on the network, all
network traffic will pass through the NetWare server. The performance
degradation can be significant if the NetWare server is connected with a
slow link.
RESOLUTION- Verify the correct frame type is being used for the NWLink IPX/SPX
Compatible Transport (the same frame type used by the NetWare server).
- Verify the protocol above is binding to the correct network adapter (if
more than one network card is used on the computer).
