Check my reasoning?

Just wanted to make sure there's no holes in what I'm thinking before I start poking around. I've had an issue with Internet speeds the last few days. The problem affects both PCs and my mobile in our house, but ONLY occurs when the main PC is on. When it's off, or not connected to the router (it connects via Ethernet), everything is fine.
At the moment I'm on the main PC using an Ubuntu Live CD and again everything is tickety-boo.
Is it reasonable to assume then that the problem lies within Windows, either being a driver or software issue? I don't see any point in checking the PC's innards as surely any problem there would also affect Ubuntu. And I can't see it being any external factor such as inteference as again that would be affecting me now.
Am I right? Or have a missed something?

Thanks!
