Ray has given you some great info. Another thing to consider is that the NE* chipset is a true POS and should have been abandoned when PCI came out.... these cards will not perform anywhere near the "rated" bandwidth under ideal conditions. If none of the other considerations shed any light on the bandwidth, try using a better set of NIC's, like the tulip-based or rtl8139 chipsets.
