Yes. It is the Switch. I exhausted this topic last year.

I currently have $600 in unusable TrendWare switches. I tried Cat5,
Cat5e, Cat6, remade them all, tried the wiki nfs solution, etc.
I finally had to conclude that the engineering behind some cheaper Gig
switches was not good enough for the physics behind NFS. It sounds
nuts, but I have found no other explanation that borders on logic.
