I have a similar problem with exactly the same via rhine card:

Under FreeBSD 5.1 everything is working fine, but under
Linux (2.4.21, 2.6.0-test5) scp'ing a file can't be done with more than 40KB/s
(in a 100MBit network).
First the card sends with nearly 130KB/s (also not the expected maximum)
but then pretty fast the transmission falls down to 40KB/s.
I didn't recognize this for a long time because speed of downloading
a file is not affected.

I tried pci=noacpi and also acpi=off with no effect.
