By directly connected, I mean on the same subnet. Whether the 
underlying transport is over a WAN doesnt matter, as long as the two 
devices are on the same subnet is what counts.  Just to rule out 
issues like duplex setting bugs, I would try the two boxes back to 
back and make sure its the same subpar performance.
