No, but make sure the switch and the box agrees on half or full duplex,
with Cisco switches and with Sun or HP machines it has to be forced
rather than relaying on auto-negotiation to make it work right.

What are you meassuring speed with?  Do you have a cross cable and could
plug two machines up directly?
