I don't know if there is a program, but there are website which can measure it, in the netherlands (where I live) www.speedtest.nl is commonly used.

Hi!
First of all sorry for my english!!!
You can obtain some information using 'ping' in windows and linux and after compare both.
Your network config is the same of windows? (dhcp / static IP) Do you have a firewall installed in windows?

Don't worry found a way around it ....
bascially....you can add a docklet for it...and it will monitor in and out going packets...

I think KPPP provides another window and monitors the speed, with graphs and all.
