Thanks for the help. Looks like the network speed is fine, the slowdown 
appears to be in "scp", which is how I was sending the files.

Using ttcp the test the network speed, gives the following,

> 8192000000 bytes in 69.96 real seconds = 114350.28 KB/sec

Using ttcp to send one of the files gives the following result,

> 1464370115 bytes in 18.84 real seconds = 75923.92 KB/sec,

which is similar (a little faster) to the speed I see with scp in F11.

F13 scp gives me 23.3 MB/s for the same file.

Looks like I'll spend a little time poking at F13 scp and see if I can 
improve the transfer speed.

Thanks for all your help.
