Im confused.

my Internet was slow on all my machines, (macbook MP Vista Ipod) (has been fine for 5 months)

after 5 hours or so they all fixed themselves expect for the MP when im talking slow 0.6kbps download speed

I thought what the hell ill reinstall it should fix it. No luck, i then tried Wifi on the MP & it runs fine 2.3mbps on ubuntu downloads fine.

so any ideas on why MP via Wifi is Fine MP via ethenet is very slow.

i've changed the cables
changed the port on the router.

the only thing i can think of is AppleTalk has died on the router or MP Ethernet ports are dieing?
 
OS X or Windows Vista/7?

The drivers on the install DVD are cack (for Windows).
 
Open Network Utility and have a look at the speed of the LAN adapter.

Also, I've give the Ethernet socket a blast with compressed air to clean it out.
