100Mbit is actually more challenging for the wiring than 1Gbit except 
that gigabit ethernet uses all the wires in the cable.  A single bad 
connection in the cable will defeat gigabit ethernet.  Check all the 
pins in the connectors (bent pin?) and try a different port if 
possible.

Replacing the cable is certainly the first thing to try.  The cheapy 
"SOHO" switch is the next most likely suspect.  Device drivers are 
least suspect unless they have been configured to force the hardware 
to particular settings.
