Help with Cisco 871-K9

Hi everyone! I'm having trouble with my 871 router.

My problem is the next one.

It's starts like this:

My ISP give me an address by DHCP, it is connected to a 1841 (Fe 0/1), on Fe0/0 I assign 10.22.1.1 and by DHCP on my 871, I gather the IP the router gives me.

Now, in the 871, as you can see on the attach everything's configured, I can make pings to everything unless to my computer, with the IP 10.22.2.3 and Gateway 10.22.2.1 (Vlan1). Therefore, I ping from my computer to the vlan1 (inside) and the Fe4 port (outside) -works- but I dont have access to the web. Neither I can ping 10.22.1.2 that is 1841 router.

Any ideas of what I'm doing wrong?

1841 is working perfect and it's natting the public ip into private.

No, it can be on access port if you just want to support a single subnet. I don't think the 871 will support more than 2 VLAN's.

jerry

Jerry, everythings working but I'm having a very slow connection with the 871, am I missing any command?

I'm connected directly with another computer to the 1841, and it's working normally.

Can you check your CPU on the 871 which process is using lots of CPU cycle?

show proc cpu

Also, how many PC is behind the 871?

Also can you remove this command on interface F4

ip flow ingress

This is for netflow, and I don't see you have any netflow collector configured.

Please keep in mind that 871 is a low end router, and the performance is much lower than the 1800 series.

HTH,

jerry

Jerry, I attach you the results, I've just removed the ip flow ingress command.

And I'm only using one computer at this time, I know 871 has a lower performance, but the web pages take too long to open, and I can't even open messenger.

For your consideration, now I'm downloading a Excel file, and the transfer rate is about of 1.2KB/sec, meanwhile, here in my laptop is about 412KB/sec

Your CPU process looks fine. Could you please do the following commands

no service tcp-keepalives-in

no service tcp-keepalives-out

no ip reflexive-list timeout 120

no ip ssh source-interface FastEthernet0

no logging source-interface FastEthernet0

Troubleshooting latency is pretty complicated. There might be lots of TCP re-transmission happening in the network. You can check this with a sniffer to see what is happening on the network.

HTH,

jerry

Jerry, those commands helped a bit. So if theres lots of TCP re-transmission, what would I have to do? I'm watching with Wireshark and seems that there is a lot of re-transmissioning.

I would have to use: ip tcp adjust-mss xxx?

Regards!

I would find out the what cause the re-transmission first. Adjusting TCP MTU will fix fragmentation problem. I would like to see the interface status along the path first. I am trying to look for errors along the path to rule out any physical problems.

The output I am interested is from show interface fx/x command

This one looks pretty clean. Can you do the show interface on the port your PC is connected to?

If you can do that on the 1841, that would be great.

Okay, all your interfaces are clean.

How does the network behave during none peak hour?

Regards,

jerry

Yep, I dunno what is happening, during peak hour it slows down, but in that pc I cannot enter to messenger, and web pages load very slow.

Now, in my laptop I'm downloading at 300KB/sec and in the computer connected to the 871 the speed is 3KB/sec. WEIRD

Regards!

Thanks you very much for your help!

It looks like your link is very congested during peak hour.

jerry
