Linux always worked best for us as well, was easy running a livecd with laptops. We found that two windows XP machines, same identical hardware and OS load yielded different registry settings (or lack thereof) for TCP Window setting.
I would have thought that (netperf's) UDP tests were more appropriate than TCP for testing link speed. Am I missing the point?
