Another thing to check.

Do you happen to have a bandwidth statement in your interface config?  I've
found that our implementation of MRTG will cap it's reports at whatever is
in the bandwith statement.  You might want to verify that MRTG is correctly
reporting the actual traffic.

	is this frame relay?

	if so, most telcos, etc.. have a 50% CIR (Commited Information
Rate)
that allows you to burst up to 512k at times when there is capacity but
they only commit to giving you 50% of the full link speed.
