Pistorm and Plipbox #52

Thank you for your extraordinary work with this excellent product.

Now to the issue I have. When I try to use an Plipbox to get network connectivity to my A500 it does not funktion correct. The speed is to slow and the connection between the Amiga and the plipbox is lost. These problem does not exist on my second A500 that has an 20MHz 68000 accelerator in it. That Amiga gets a constant 35 KB/s download speed and no dissconnects vs. sporadic 8KB/s when it hasn't lost the connection in the pistorm amiga. It doesn't matter if I use Musachi or emu68 the behavior is similar. I think it's a problem with the pistorm itself. Otherwise it works as expected. I know I can use the a314 features but in emu68 thats not an option at the moment.

After a bit of further experementing the plipbox started working correctly. I upgraded to AmiTCP 4.0 and then it started to work as expected. It even gets speeds at 55 KB/s when downloading from local lan FTP server. So it seems it was a software issue with an earlier version of AmiTCP.
