Great! Is your upstream device also able to talk at 100 Mb/s?
You might also try running some point to point bandwidth tests with iperf
<http://dast.nlanr.net/Projects/Iperf/> to try and isolate which
machine(s) are having issues. ntop <http://www.ntop.org> and iptraf
(included in CentOS) can also be useful to monitor bandwidth/throughput
as well.
