Question, why are you using NetBEUI? If you have Win2000 servers and Win98 workstations, all can use TCP/IP. NetBEUI is highly broadcast dependenat, which only serves to make bandwidth problems worse. Also, as others have stated, check all the connections. One place problems can creep in and be very tough to find is in the T connectors at each network card. If any of them are really loose (spin around rather freely, like a propellor), try replacing them. If it spins around easily then it probably isn't making very good contact internally, causing retransmits and reducing throughput.

However when I switch of this protocol on a W98 machine I won't be able to logon onto my W2000 domain. For the moment the problem is solved: Now i've got a troughput around 950 KB/s which is reasonable if you take the theoretical maximum of 1.25 MB/s into account.
