I've seen an issue like this before turned out to switch interoperability.
Im my case Extreme and Planet. Worth checking. If you've got another
machine on the local switch try from there. Symptoms where very
slow 1Mb's or lower even stalling on ftp download. Solution was
to either only use one type of switch or to eliminated the use
of all Gig ports ( use only 100MB ports ) N.B. coding Gig ports
to 100Mb didn't work.
