Could you provide the output from 'ifconfig' and 'route -n' on A, B and
C? This is either a reverse DNS, duplex mismatch or routing problem.

To see if your are full or half duplex, see if ifconfig reports any
collisions on the eth interface - on full duplex you never get any
collisions.

If it takes a long time from you try to connect until it starts 
downloading, you have a DNS problem.

If the download is incredibly slow and one or more of the network
interfaces on A, B or C report a huge amount of collisions, you
have a duplex problem.

Routing problems usually result in not being able to connect at
all, which doesn't seem to be the case here.
