[squid-users] ADSL --> Linux --> Hub --> Windows .................. Slow response

I have installed RHEL 5.1 and have the following result with the
following configurations.

Conf-A. ADSL Modem--->Windows // It offers fast response....
when connecting any website
Conf-B. ADSL Modem --> Linux--> Hub--->Windows Client ... // Slow
response compared to Conf-A .... when connecting any website
Conf-C. ADSL Modem --> Router --> Linux ---> Hub --> Windows Client
.............. // Fast response and same as Conf-A.

Note:
1. All above configuration are test without squid (i.e with NAT only mode )
2. Selinux -- Permissive mode

Conf-A & Conf-C response time are fast and i think same...

Here is my questions... !!
Why it becomes slow response time with Conf-B style configurations... ?
If any one of you suspect, pls test by yourself.
I think ... we need to makes some tweaks... in Linux box...
But I dont know ...
May be MTU...Selinux.....or sth else...

I believe any one can point out me how to fix Conf-B to get fast response.
