You may have to force the Ethernet card to 100Mbps, if it is a gig-e
card. I haven't seen this problem with a SB5100, but I guess it could
happen. For some reason Dells sometimes won't realize they are on a
100Mbps connection with some cablemodems (I see it more often with
Scientific Atlanta and Terryon modems).
