I'm wondering if I'm having a similar issue.  I'm having slow internet
access when I set a static IP.  If I use DHCP it works great.  I have
this Ubuntu 8.04 Server directly connected to a comcast router.  It has
5 static IPs.  I use these all the time so I just set the static ip in
/etc/network/interfaces and it normally works.  I get 1.5mb down.  Right
now if I set the static IP I get about 300k down.  Then if I change my
interfaces file to iface eth0 inet dhcp and reload networking I get my
1.5mb down.  I have IPV6 disabled.  I use the same DNS with each test.
If I plug my laptop running windows directly into the router I can get
1.5mb down with DHCP or static so I don't think it is a ISP hardware
problem.  Maybe this is a new bug?  Any thoughts?  Thanks.
