Question : File upload okay, jpeg upload slow!

OK guys, this is probably a piece of cake for most of you... but I'm puzzled.

I have an server with a 2 Mbit/s upload link to the internet. The modem is an Arris Touchstone CM450b (cablemodem).

When people download a file from my server with their internet explorer (through IIS, which is installed on my server), speeds are normal.

However, when IIS sends out a html page containing img tags pointing to graphics on the same server, those gifs and jpegs are send VERY slowly. Users see the pictures being drawn in chuncks on their screens.

Can this have something to do with packet sizes?? Has anyone seen this before? Please help me solve this puzzle!

>those gifs and jpegs are send VERY slowly

What size jepgs?  (How big are files?)
Is it possible that the images need resized and optimized for browsing?
