NETBEUI LAN networking is usually very fast. That's one of its benefits.
It's actaully faster than TCPBEUI.
I would normally suspect a hardware problem, but your SLPR printer sharing
is working fine. True?
Check the Peer statistics. They are somewhat hidden. On the Shared
Resources folder, click on the Control menu button and select Statistics.
Click the More button to see the 2nd page.
It's possible that since you have TCPBEUI bound to net1, that's getting
tried first and the timeouts are causing the delays. A quick test is to
edit ibmlan.ini and swap net1 and net2 in the [networks] section.
When you edit ibmlan.ini, you do not need to reboot to test, just start
and restart Peer with
net stop peer
net start peer
from the command line.
