I have a server with 10mbps dedicated bandwidth however for the past month speeds have essentially been non-exsistant.

I have even had a OS reinstall recently and the problem continues to persist.

When someone tries to download a file it only will complete about 300-700KB of it before the download just totally dies off.

Running DirectAdmin with Apache 1.3 and CentOS

Are you sure its not your network card or the network itself, if you've already reformated the server.. It doesn't seem like its a server softare type issue.

Try shutting down all services and only run say ftp for one user and then try a filetransfer and see if that works.

Hmm yeah. Might be a bad NIC then. I shut down httpd which took forever and I was able to download a file via FTP full speed (about 340KB/s) and after 20MB or so it just totally died.
