scp problems

I'm transfering to a new server and encountering a lot of problems. First I tried to transfer via WHM and my 2 largest accounts (only 500mb and 1 gig respectively) had checksum problems. I then researched other methods of transfering and found scp via ssh. I also tried wget but the thing is, I am only getting an average speed of 5 KB/s. Plus it stalls a lot. Which is weird because the server I am migrating away from has a very low cpu load.

Where do you think the problems is? Connection? Hardware? And how do I check it? And I think I need to point out specifically because my old host makes me go around in circles. Is there anything I could check via ssh or whm that can pinpoint a specific problem?

I'm running Linux/WHM
