[solved] Eclipse slow if network enabled

Hi,
there is a problem with Eclipse on my Notebook:
I'm using the latest Eclipse from the repository and the Subversion plugin from subclipse.tigris.org with the optional software for JavaHL and SVNKit Adapter. I checked out my project and everything is working fine so far. But when i try to open a file, eclipse is loading about 30 seconds for each. When i disable my wireless-NIC the files are opened as fast as usual ( <= 1 sec).
On my desktop-pc this problem didnt occur, but it is wired and uses a static IP.
Can anyone tell me what is wrong with my system? Is it a bug (i didn't find anything like this in the bugtracker)?
Thanks
VR

Hi,
i guess i was able to solve it and i think it was a problem in the configuration.
For those who have this or similar problems:
rc.conf
- INTERFACES=(lo !eth0 !wlan0) [lo added]
/etc/hosts
- as Wiki [.domain.org und localhost added]

  • I have a 1st generation time capsule and an extreme b/g. Is the extreme slowing the network down

    I have a 1st generation time capsule and an appe extreme b/g. Is the extreme slowing the network down? Should I dump it an get the new n version?

    yes it is likely to be slowing down the network because you are using 802.11b/g
    from what i recall with b/g a slow client can slow down the entire network to that clients speed.
    this was the major improvement with 802.11n and Mimo. each client can be connected to the access point without affecting your speed to the rest of the network
    its reccomended to get all new "N" equipment if you have the budget for it. some of those old airports and time capsules can still be worth something on amazon marketplace so you might be able to sell them
    if you want to create / join / extend a netwowrk your going to probably need all "n" based equipment.
    buy the new 4th generation time capsule or the new 5th generation airport they have better stronger radios
    in the mean time configure your base station router to a high multicast rate, so it will prevent devices connecting to it at 1-2 mbps speeds and slowing down your network
    if you have an apple care covered mac remember the airport / time capsule rule. all airports and time capsules purchased 2 years before you bought your mac to the 3 years of apple care covers them. if you do not have apple care then the standard warranty applies

  • I cant fifure this out...who wants to solve a huge crime network..thisa is no joke

    i cant fifure this out...who wants to solve a huge crime network..thisa is no joke

    Nope.  That's the issue.
    They'll sync on a third device acting as a hotspot, but the device sending a signal is not "on" the network it creates so the airport is all by itself on that network.  At least that is what it looks like to me.  Anyone have another take on it?  Seems pretty silly that an iPad can put out a wifi signal, an Airport Express can receive a wifi signal, and yet there is no simple way to get them to communicate under this particular condition.

    I have a BB AT&T Passport.  The GPS location with Mobile Network enabled is .25 - .5 mi off.  If I disable Mobile Network and just use WiFi then my GPS Location is within 50 - 100 ft.  Why is there such a disparity location with AT&T LTE?  I have the latest software update from AT&T.  Can we get this problem fixed AT&T?

    Upgrading to 6.1.1 hasn't solved the problem with network connection on 4S. Still "No Servise"!

    Same here.  Everything was fine running on ios 6.0, I don't know what possessed me to upgrade!  I contacted O2 and thet went through the usual settings; reboot; airplane mode etc and it works for a while (like 5 mins) then service is losted with the network.  I've even deleted the exchange email account and rebooted as read on the internet that this would fix the problem.... guest what....yep no joy!  This is clearly a faulty software update and need fixing pronto!  I've read that ios6.1.2 will be out soon to fix the firmware that was suppose to fix the initial network problem.   When will this be realeased Apple?!  It's hardly fit for purpose when I can't make calls or surf the internet. 

  • Switching airport cards to solve 10.5.2 network issue

    Ever since 10.5.2, i can no longer get online on various routers. my friend who has also updated can get on these same networks that i can't.
    i have a macbook w/ the following airport card: AirPort Extreme (0x168C, 0x87)
    Firmware Version: 1.2.2
    Wireless Channel: 6
    he has a macbook pro w/ the following airport card: Airport Extreme (0x168C,0x86)
    Firmware 1.3.2
    Wireless Ch. 6
    i am wondering if it would be possible to change my airport card to the one my friend has - or will it not be compatible with my macbook. does anyone know?
    i am hoping this will solve my problem after 10.5.2
    today apple care basically responded to the issue with "blah blah blah 3rd party blah blah blah compatibility blah blah blah" and pretty much said they weren't working on a fix for this as it was not an issue with 10.5.2.
    they said i could go back to 10.5.1 (which i already have) - problem is, besides their screw up with the networking - they also did a lot of other fixes that i would like to have since i spent the money on leopard and should be able to do the upgrades w/out losing things like network capability.
    i hoping swapping the airport card will fix it.

    yes, switching back to 10.5.1 did solve my problem. not really a solution though is it... not if you would like to have the benefit of all the other fixes that came with 10.5.2.
    as far as someone having a solution - i've been following these threads for awhile now and most "solutions" involve making changes to the router. this is not a solution since not all routers that people use w/ a laptop are accessible. i would think that most of us use routers in a variety of locations other than our homes ranging from work to coffee shops to hotels etc.
    i don't think coffee shops and hotels are going to allow you to go in and play with their networking system.
    as far as i see the only fix is for able to change whatever they did - but seeing as they won't even admit to creating the problem, i am not holding my breath for a solution from them.
    i am more and more disappointed with apple. sure, they are coming out with some amazing technology, but as they do their customer service is slipping away as well as the quality of their craftsmanship and attention to detail. i for one wish that apple would slow down a bit on the "toys & gadgets" and get back to paying more attention to their basic items - ie computers. i mean, really, did we really need "the thinnest notebook ever"? i'm not sure i really understand the point, especially when they haven't solved all the glitches with their products that are already out there.

  • I am desperate!! slow choppy network speeds (not actual inability to cnnct)

    I have a 13" macbook air that has the following problem: I can connect to wifi networks (including at home WPA and also tried WPA2 settings) but even though I may get proper speed at first, I soon lose that and it becomes much slower and choppy (if I open activity monitor I can see the speed going up and down like crazy...). My internet speed at home is 12mpbs set by my provider. When I perform speed tests (vis speedtest.net or downloading files from other speed test sites) on my windows PC that is also on this network I get the full download speed. However with this MAC while I initially did get the full speed, it is now down to an average of 3-5mbps and the activity monitor, again, shows choppy behavior so it will be at 8 then at zero almost and then up and down again but never near the full speed. I tried to connect to other networks and I have the same problem - once this happens it stays. I tried removing the airport connection in network preferences and adding it again it does not help.
    I TALKED TO APPLE AND HAD MY COMPUTER TESTED BY THEM - they didn't find any hardware issues (they said it was fine - but it isn't) but they still replaced the airport hardware in the computer - both the chip and the antenna (which meant replacing the entire screen). I brought the computer home, ran a speed test and everything was fine. I thought GREAT but then something happened and the problem returned. What I did (which I think was unrelated) was connect via SMB to a PC at home and I tried to stream a movie file. I noticed it kept 'pausing' so I opened up activity monitor again and to my HORROR I saw the choppy wave with network speed very inconsistent going up and down like crazy... I tried connecting to my slingox using the sling web access after disconnecting from my home PC but got partial speed and lots of drops too. I tried the speed test again multiple times, nothing seems to work.
    SO I don't know what to do at this point. I have 10.6.6 running. I heard something about a firmware update but I am new to mac so not sure how to even do that or what else I can do to solve this problem or what is causing it. BTW - logging in now from the guest account still does not fix the issues and they remain the same.
    I am desperately looking for help!!
    Thanks a lot!

    Have you been able to reproduce your problems on other wireless networks other than at your house? It appears you are saying that this occurs on all wireless, but I'm not sure from your comment. If it's only at home, it would appear to be a compatibility issue between your wireless access point and the Macbook Air, which isn't uncommon. Sometimes a firmware upgrade to the access point can fix it, sometimes it might require switching to a different brand of access point. It would be great if you could borrow (or buy and return) a different access point/router to test. An Apple airport would be the best to use of course. Not the easiest solution, but lets you help rule out a hardware issue with your air.
    My isp provides 15mbps but my wireless devices such as my iphone, ipad, laptop usually only get 6.5-8 mbps when testing speeds to the internet. I don't expect it to be as good as the wired due to interference, signal, etc. I don't get the choppy behavior however. Firware updates from Apple will appear in the same manner as standard software updates. If there is one available for your system it should appear when you check for software updates. That being said, I believe you can also manually download them from the Apple site.

  • [SOLVED] Can't get network to work (realtek NIC)

    Hi there!
    I found Arch a couple of weeks ago and I got pretty excited with the possibility of taking my old Athlon 750MHz out of inactivity.
    Unfortunately, I can't seem to get the network to work.
    * I installed the system using Archlinux-i686-2007.08-2.core.iso
    * I have a little router and the machine has static IP

    The kernel module for
    Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+
    is 8139too I think
    So /etc/rc.conf should be like this
    # HARDWARE
    # Scan hardware and load required modules at bootup
    MOD_AUTOLOAD="yes"
    # Module Blacklist - modules in this list will never be loaded by udev
    MOD_BLACKLIST=()
    # Modules to load at boot-up (in this order)
    # - prefix a module with a ! to blacklist it
    MODULES=( 8139too forcedeth sk98lin slhc ac97_bus snd-mixer-oss snd-pcm-oss snd-seq-oss snd-seq-device snd-seq-midi-event snd-seq snd-hwdep snd-$
    # Scan for LVM volume groups at startup, required if you use LVM
    USELVM="no"
    The first one is 8139too, so it will be eth0
    In my example the second one is forcedeth for nvidia ethernet controler, so its going to be eth1
    Don't forget to edit /etc/resolv.conf

  • BB 8350i is slow (not network connetion)

    My Blackberry 8350i (on Nextel) is so incredibly slow sometimes that it is almost unuseable. This is not the Nextel network connection, it is the phone itself.
    I will roll the trackball and at least 50% of the time, it's literally 2 or 3 seconds before it moves. Sometimes it's 5 seconds or more. When I save entries, it can take up to 30 seconds for the save to complete and the menu screen showing the highlight on 'Save' to disappear. Exiting from applications can take 3 - 10 seconds.
    When I play the  Texas Hold'em poker game, the cards being dealt will stop in mid delivery for a second or two.
    I usually see the hourglass in the poker game, and sometimes elsewhere, but not always.
    This is supported by my company, but they unfortunately do not have the expertise to figure this out. I have Wi-fi enabled to connect to the company Wi-fi network.

  • Security Issues with SMB affect MS Office files being slow from Network locations

    On our windows 7 machines our users our having slowness issue opening Office files from a network location
    This slowness only affect domain users.  Domain admins have no slowness issues.
    Make changes to trusted documents ro trusted location.  Trust network location has no affect.
    If I disable SMB them domain users can open Office files from network location with no slowness.
    Any ideas?

    Hi Navar,
    There has been a lot of discussions about the performance impact of SMB.
    When SMB is enabled, communications to and from Windows clients will experience a significant impact on performance, which affects both the clients and the server. This is kind of by design.
    More reference:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj852239(v=ws.10).aspx
    So if you have identified that SMB is causing the performance issues, you can disable SMB on any of your Windows clients that do not require protection.

  • Windows Vista = very slow wireless network

    I have a brand new Lenovo ThinkPad Z61p. A great machine, great performance. But Vista seems to get in its way.
    The first thing I did, was to re-install Windows Vista to get a clean machine, without alle the junk that comes with it. At work, the wireless network worked just fine - but when I came home, it was so slow. I mean REALLY slow. If I turned the wireless network card off, and plugged in a cable, I was flying on the Internet. But for the wireless adapter, even a page like msdn.microsoft.com could take 3-4 minutes just to load.
    I thought the issue was the drivers for the wireless network adapter, but later, in my desperate attempt to solve the problem, I removed a Windows feature called Windows DFS Replication service, which solved my problem.
    This was 4 weeks ago - and now the problem has returned. I've been reading a lot of forum posts around the web. I've uninstalled some other features, disabled IPv6, disabled Vista Auto-tuning ( i did that 4 weeks ago as well)...
    Nothing is working. I've also changed the default Network authentication mode, I've updated the drivers for the Intel Pro Wireless 3945abg, changed the wireless mode and a lot of things. Nothing is working.
    Does anyone in here have the same issues, or does anyone know what is wrong?

    I picked up a new IBM ThinkPad T60P (Wide) running Vista Business, and I am experiencing the same problems with an extremely slow wireless connection. I get the same slow performance on the wireless network in my office as in my home.
    The second I disable the wireless and plug in the cable directly to the router (ZyXeL) everything runs perfectly. I also tested connecting an Apple AirPort to the router (via cable) and connected directly to the AirPort as an access point instead of connecting to my normal wireless network, and then everything was working just fine for some reason (almost as fast as when I connect directly to the router via cable)!
    The really weird thing is that I get really quick download rates on at least one website (www.dailyrush.dk) where I can download files at 1.1 MB/s (I should have 15 mbit downstream). The web pages of that website still load pretty slow though when I'm browsing. Most other websites that I have tested load insanely slowly, both when I'm just browsing the pages and when I'm downloading files. For example a 1024 x 695 pixel JPG on Flickr.com might take several minutes to load, or simply time out. The Google front page sometimes takes 15 seconds to load.
    I have my old laptop parked right besides the new one, both connected to the same router on wireless, and the old laptop (IBM ThinkPad T41 running XP) performs fine - downloading anywhere from 10 to 100 times faster!
    It also takes forever to connect to VPN, perhaps 15 or 20 seconds on the Vista laptop and no more than 2 seconds on the XP machine.
    When I ping www.google.com in a command prompt I get some packet loss (between 25 and 100 %) but reasonable ping times averaging about 45ms which is the same as on my old laptop.
    I have tried pretty much everything:
    Disabling Windows Firewall
    Disabling TCP/IP v6 and those other entries in the wireless adapter configuration that are new in Vista
    Disabling security on the router entirely
    Changing security on the router to WPA and WPA2
    Changing the channel on the router (tried several available channels)
    Switching between 802.11 a/b/g modes on the router
    Booting up in safe mode (heard that worked for someone with a similar problem)
    Updating the wireless adapter driver to the newest version
    Installing all available updates from Windows Update
    Moving my laptop really close to the router (duh)
    Uninstalling MacAfee
    Uninstalling Bullguard
    Uninstalling a bunch of pre-installed IBM stuff
    I have come across several threads online where people have had the exact same problem and solved it by uninstalling the pre-installed MacAfee software. My laptop came with MacAfee too but I uninstalled it right away and installed Bullguard instead. When I noticed the connection problems I uninstalled Bullguard too, but little did it help.
    I really hope that someone can help me out here ... I'm kind of running out of ideas :-( Thanks in advance.
    Cheers,
    Stefan

  • [SOLVED] Extremely Slow Wireless on Macbook Pro

    SOLVED (Hopefully forever.)
    Problem: The b43 and bcma kernel modules do not get along. You'd never know this with kernels up to 3.2.14, as bcma is not automatically loaded and it is not needed with b43. For recent kernels however, it is. It in turn destroys wireless internet speeds.
    Solution: The broadcom-wl driver. It used to be portrayed in the Wiki as being something to avoid, but that has changed recently. It offers a better connection and much faster speeds, but can take a little bit more effort to set up. Just a bit.
    Broadcom-wl Installation and Setup
    1. Install broadcom-wl from the AUR.
    2. Uninstall b43-firmware if it's installed.
    3. Note what broadcom-wl has put into /etc/modprobe.d. These blacklistings will ensure no interference from other kernel modules. Also make sure you're not blacklisting `wl` or its friends, if you have been.
    4. Don't reboot yet. Go to /sys/class/net and use the command:
    udevadm info -a -p /sys/class/net/<yourdevice> | grep address | tr [A-Z] [a-z]
    (of course replacing <yourdevice> with the names of your interfaces - probably eth0 and wlan0) This will tell you their MAC addresses. Write these down!
    5. Go to /etc/udev/rules.d/ and create a file called 10-network.rules. We are going to make custom udev rules so that our interfaces are matched to their proper names at boot time. Here is a template:
    SUBSYSTEM=="net", ATTR{address}=="aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff", NAME="net0"
    SUBSYSTEM=="net", ATTR{address}=="ff:ee:dd:cc:bb:aa", NAME="wifi0"
    Enter the MAC addresses (in lower case!) and give them names in the NAME field. Apparently it's a good idea to choose new interface names, different from the default eth0 and wlan0. My file looks like this:
    SUBSYSTEM=="net", ATTR{address}=="58:b0:35:f6:45:0c", NAME="wired0"
    SUBSYSTEM=="net", ATTR{address}=="f8:1e:df:ea:99:17", NAME="wifi0"
    6. Go change ANYTHING that had references to the old interface names. I had to change my rc.conf, as well as settings in my wicd preferences so that it knows what names to look for.
    7. Rebuild your kernel image with
    sudo mkinitcpio -p linux
    (you might not have to do this, but it couldn't hurt.)
    8. Save this page. Yes, the html. This is so that you still know what to do in case of problems and no internet.
    9. Reboot and enjoy your restored wireless internet.
    ---- ORIGINAL POST ----
    Seems everybody and their grandmothers are having internet problems since 3.3.
    On a Macbook Pro, kernel 3.3.2-1.
    Here is my problem: http://i.imgur.com/AcqLM.jpg
    I made that image before checking the forums, but now that I've looked around I suspect the kernel.
    Put up with it until 3.3.3? Or regress?

    @fosskers:
    Sry, I just told KDE to disable it
    @all:
    /proc/net/wireless looks pretty bad:

    Sometimes it does not find any networks at all (iwlist wlan0 scan shows nothing)
    Again, everything was fine with kernel < 3.4. (downgrading helps).
    Maybe I should start compiling some kernels myself and search the regression with a bisection...
