3COM 905B is slow when using multiple adapter (2, 3) on the same system
(FTP transfer < 100Kb/s) when only one adapter is used 
all is working perfectly.

>How-To-Repeat:
2 or 3 3COM 905B and FTP client/server

 I'd like to report that the slow receive on 3Com cards still exists in 4.7-R.
 
 The speed seems to improve when i LOWER the receive buffers, but it does
 not seem to eliminate it completely.
 
 I'm using a 3Com 3c905-TX Fast Etherlink XL PCI card, which is connected
 to a Netgear Switch (100mbit full duplex).
