port speed

how can I check the port speed on a windows 98 machine?
Is there anyway? The network card is set to autodetect.

Copy a large file from A to B and measure the amount of
time it takes. Actual speed will, of course, be the lower of
the two speeds at PC A and B.

Here is how to create a large file from a DOS Prompt.
Type this exactly as you see it here:

debug c:\big.bin
rbx
10
w
q

This will generate a 10 MByte file. It will take about
2 seconds to copy under 100 MBits/s, and ten times
longer under 10 MBits/s.
