Slow T3

We have just put in a point to point T3. I have a Cisco 3845 with an NM1-T3 card at each end. If I open an FTP connection from one end to the other, I only get about 6Mbit of throughput. It doesn't seem to matter which combination of machines I use on either end (i.e. windows

-> linux, linux->linux, etc.) If I open a bunch of connections from several machines I can max out the connection at about 45Mbit, thereby I don't believe it is being limited by my provider.

Ping times between sites average around 16ms. I am showing no errors on any of the interfaces.

What are my next steps in troubleshooting this?

Thanks. Travis
