Morgan,
We have tried running an image through a single switch and got the same result. The image speed continuously drops. I'm starting to think that the issue is with some sort of Ubunto configuration, the Linux expert from my office and I are having no luck figuring out what the issue is. We did notice in the system monitoring that the send speed is practically nothing, but we're not sure how to fix it. Do you have any ideas, I'm considering just rebuilding the server and using something other than Ubunto.
Thank You again for your assistance!
