Could you do a drawing of you setup? I thought it was

[Internet]---[cisco678]----laptop

and you where experiencing the slow down connected directly to the cisco

The way this reads to me is a set up like

[Internet]----[cisco678]-- [hub]---[linuxrouter]---laptop 

or

[Internet]---[cisco678]---[hub]-----[linuxrouter]
					     |
					     |-------[laptop]


Thank you
Russell
