bad NAT performance (outgoing/uploading/writing speed drops to 0kb/s)

Reported by: zyro Assigned to:
Priority: critical Component: network
Version: VirtualBox 2.0.2 Keywords: nat network write upload slow
Cc: Guest type: Windows
Host type: Linux

Description

- Using WinXP Guest on Ubuntu 8.04 lts Host with Virtualbox 2.0.2.
- Using NAT'ed Network Interface in Virtualbox
- MRXMP.dll - Fix (http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/1728) installed

The first Problem i encountered was MS Office terribly slow opening Documents stored on my Host shared folder. This issue was fixed by the MRXMP.dll (see above).

But now my issue is a extremely slow outgoing connection with the NAT'ed network interface.
- Connection speed while uploading or transfer files from the guest to the network drops to 0 kb/s for about 1-2 seconds every 5-10 seconds.
- This goes so far, that my network printer seems to have to take breaks because it does not get enough data to print continously

As far as i can tell, this problem must have sth. to do with NAT and the outgoing direction:
- Downloads work at satisfying speed
- Tried HostNetworkInterface? (Bridged): No more lags/drops to 0kb/s
