It also depends on the speed of the server your downloading from.

Some inexpensive ethernet cables only use 4 wires. This works
fine for 10/100, but 1000 needs all 8 wires. Check your cable.

I'm wondering if gigabit works at all

Anyone seen many gigabit switches or routers that actually work, esp
in mixed speed (10/100/1000) environments ?
