I use a dual boot laptop at work. When i'm in linux (RH7.2) my ethernet connection trickles at ~250Kbs. But when I boot into windows, I get ~2500Kbs.
At home on my cable internet (through a router box) speeds are fine and equal.
Does anyone have an idea of why there may be a discrepancy?
Thanks for the help.

Check for a duplex setting mismatch between your NIC and the switch. You don't say what the NIC is; mii-tool may be helpful. Try forcing it to full duplex if it isn't already.

i don't think this is the issue, unless he means 2500kbytes vs 250kbytes. more likely it's a routing or firewall/proxy problem.
