3725 slow

mike.f

I have a 3725 router running 12.2 with a 4 port BRI module. We have had it running using one of the bri ports out to the internet fine. However we have now connected up a remote office using one of the other bri ports to a seperate isdn line, this links two win2k servers, the line is up almost constantly but i 'm sure the traffic is minimal most of the time, however our internet link has slowed right down, it is ok sometimes but at others it almost grinds to a halt.

Both the site to site and the internet are linked to the Lan through the same fastethernet port.The two bri lines are seperate and with low traffic on the site to site link, what could be slowing it down?

Thanks

Using one more BRI line on a same router should not slow down the speed on the first bri line. Both the bri lines should work independently. Now you need to troubleshoot about any possible packet drops or errors on the bri interfaces on 3725 using "sh interface bri x".

Does both the bri lines work fine when only one is connected at a time?

You can post the config and show command output here to see any possible issues.

I assumed it was the other bri line causing the prob, i'm now not convinced the speed seems to start ok in the morning and slow as the day goes on, it is a bit random. here is the router config any obvious mistakes that may cause these symptoms?

Just an update.... I may have cured the problem (but not found the reason) .i tried removing access-list 104 which made no difference. I managed to speak to our isp while the internet was running slow ( as usually they don't belive you)

we tried some pinging and it was dropping packets, we looked at the multilink ppp, the isp said that it seemed to be connecting ok their end, however we tried taking off multilink ppp and it ran fine, they then suggested i try a config they recommend for cisco routers connecting to themselves, this i've tried and so far it seems to have cured the prob. This is the new config, i'd be very interested if anyone can tell me what the prob was with multilink ppp on the old config.
