If you are getting poor speeds using wget and just overall throughput on the new server and the network settings are all correct on the switch, it may be necessary to tune your sysctl tcp window scaling options. We found that the following settings work well when added to /etc/sysctl.conf file.
Code:
net.ipv4.tcp_window_scaling=1 net.core.rmem_max=104857600 net.core.wmem_max=104857600 net.core.rmem_default=65536 net.core.wmem_default=65536 net.ipv4.tcp_rmem=4096 524288 104857600 net.ipv4.tcp_wmem=4096 524288 104857600 net.ipv4.tcp_mem=8388608 8388608 8388608 net.core.netdev_max_backlog=30000 net.ipv4.tcp_no_metrics_save=1 net.ipv4.tcp_timestamps=0 net.ipv4.tcp_sack=0 net.ipv4.route.flush=1
The above tuned various things -- the most important is enabling TCP window scaling, the next 4 values bump the TX/RX buffer sizes up, the last ones are various changes to cut down on CPU usage per-packet.

I recently switched to AYK Solutions from Softlayer for my dedicated server requirements. I received a much better specification server at significantly reduced cost from what Softlayer could offer me, with many of the previously 'extra' features at Softlayer included in the base price offered by AYK. The support was second to none, and they were extremely helpful in transferring all of my old server accounts over for no additional fee whatsoever.

AYK Solutions has provided me with a very cost effective hosting service with great uptime and lots of features. I would not hesitate to recommend them!
