Are all of the routers identical ? Are all of your Ethernet interfaces 100mb/full duplex. Do you see any errors on them? ... collisions, FCS, etc. Are the PC NIC's configured the same ? Out Of Curiosity - what make/model are the NICs? Are the PC's OS and software loads identical - i.e., are any of then doing anything funky?
Note - I would recommend, if you haven't already, making everything 100mb/FD "locked", no auto anything :). Or start troubleshooting the old-fashioned way ... Are they consistent - i.e. - is this week's "slow set" the same next week, or no? If you take a "slow set" and plug that router into a "fast set" ... and try again ... does the "slow router" become "fast"? ... etc. Thanks!
