Test your network connection using some other tool between the server
in question and some other system, in a way that doesn't involve your
disk or your tape, just the network.  iperf is handy, or you can use
dd with netcat or socat.

This sort of problem is typical of a speed/duplex mismatch.  That is,
either your switch or your server is hardcoding the speed of your
network port, and the other end is using different settings.
