Does the TV show if the Ethernet link is connected at Gigabit or 10/100? 

 

I would be surprised if it negotiating 10 Mbps link since it is too old. 

 

also, How are you checking speed on TV? using some kind of speedtest in TV browser? or netflix app?

Problem (my fault) solved.The Vizio TV does a speed test and lists the results in MB'S. You need to convert this to mbps. When I did this the speed is OK. Thanks to everyone who jumped in to help.

    lol.. 

     

    I have not seen people specifying speeds in MB/s.

     

    Storage is quoted in MByte GByte..TByte.. and speeds are quoted in Mbits/s or Gbits/s or Kbits/s.... etc
