David might be able to help with this. The ubsec driver is mostly used on linksys/asus machines,
perhaps yours is slightly different?

Note that slow throughput could also be caused by fragmentation as a result of the extra IPsec
header space, causing you to encrypt two packets for every one unencrypted packet. Try setting
your LAN MTU to 1400 and see if the problem remains?
