Not sure - if pinging something on the internet any delay can be external or internal and MS did overhaul the networking stack between XP and Win7 so there are differences there.

But if you ping another IP on your LAN and still have delayed replies but only on the new GB card that would be unusual.

XP also has a pathping command:
pathping -q 10 destination

The above example would send 10 pings to each hop along the route to the destination, similar to tracert (traceroute) but usually returns the route info quicker then the ping stats afterwards. If you don't specify a -q option the default is 100 pings to each hop!

(I use TBB's BQM)

Ping to router (192.168.1.254 - tg585) from XP via Gigabit switch, don't have the Win7 machine fired up at the moment:

C:\Documents and Settings\me>pathping -q 10 192.168.1.254

Tracing route to 192.168.1.254 over a maximum of 30 hops

0 xxxxxxxx.lan [192.168.1.xx]
1 192.168.1.254

Computing statistics for 2 seconds...

Hop RTT Lost/Sent = Pct Lost/Sent = Pct Address

0/ 10 = 0% |
1 0ms 0/ 10 = 0% 0/ 10 = 0% 192.168.1.254

Looks OK?

File transfer is still around 30MB/s with my preferred Kaspersky IS settings on both machines...might change the settings later in order to verify that that there is not a issue elsewhere, although that speed is more than adequate.

What is the command from Win7 32bit Command Prompt to do the above test?
