Could be lots of reasons why your speeds are poorish.
Are you running Win7 ? If so make sure you have the latest NIC drivers and reinstall them. Are you sure you have a GB NIC ?
Try changing any Flow Control settings on the NIC and the Switch. Is this a managed switch or an ordinary switch ?
I saw better and more consistent data patterns without Jumbo frames than with JF enabled.
FYI I used to get 80MBps+ when connecting a Win7 PC with an Intel Pro 1000/PT NIC to 2x Ultra 6+ through 3x Netgear GS108tV1 over CAT6 cable.
I had all manner of problems but solved them over time by changing the items listed above. Look at my forum posts for more info about my efforts.
There is also a Win programme that shows a "realtime" trace of network data called : NetMeter_v114_beta. Might be worth trying to find it on the Net. If your data trace patten is very up/down, then there is some extra up/down traffic going on - usually a sign of a network mismatch somewhere.
