Default iMac vs. Dell D420 speed???

Hi

I have a 12Mb NTL connection and it is super quick on my iMac (11755kb/sec). However, when I connect my Dell D420 laptop using an ethernet cable, I only get 1500kb/sec. Why is this when it is the same connection??

I'm not sure myself, but something similar came up before. I use Linux and my connection seems fine, but whenever I switch to Windows the upload speeds drop considerably. The post can be read here:

Good luck! If you can understand it then great! If not, I'm not much help, I'm afraid!
