We run a 1000BaseT, full duplex network, however we use auto-negotiate to ensure that minimal errors occur. A few days ago, all Ubuntu servers started having an extremely slow upload (to the outside world) speed, whilst maintaining the usual download speed. For example, we may usually have 100 down and 100 up, however we would now be receiving 100 down and 1 up.
This only applies to Ubuntu machines, as all Windows machines (both the server and my admin laptop) receive the full speed.
All Ubuntu machines are currently using the 3.13.0-48-generic kernel(and I have tried downgrading the kernel, however it fixed nothing).
Below is some information I have gathered from various debug tools:
