Another problem I've had with Windows PCs before is that they silently fall back to 10mbps on auto-neg if the router is improperly configured. But even that is faster than you are describing. However this command in 'buntu will give you clues: $ sudo ethtool eth0 The good news in the output from mine is: Speed: 100Mb/s Duplex: Full In Windows XP I can't remember exactly how you find out what its duplex settings ... but if you go into the properties of the network connection, then tcp/ip settings advanced you should find a list of properties including the speed and duplex. *however* I strongly urge you to try: a) A *patch* or *straight* cable between ubuntu and the router, and windows and the router. b) Using your crossover to connect the XP and ubuntu directly.
