The speed is FULL! It's not an emulation, it's running native. Actually, I've been having issues with OSX 10.4.6 connecting to the web. The connection is slow...under xp I'm getting much faster connections to my cable system. I'm up to the promised 3MB level. Lately the Apple systems in my house have been under 1MB.
Okay, I'll bite on this one. Is your cable system straight bridged ethernet, or do they have you using PPPoE for some reason? Have you tried forcing the ethernet adapters in the Macs to 'standard' half-duplex operation, which most Windows drivers probably end up doing by default?
[You can adjust this GUIly through the 'advanced' 'manual' section of the Ethernet tab of the Network control panel, and confirm it with `ifconfig` from the shell.]
