GS105Ev2 Speed issues

I am so lost and feel like it am just not understanding the speed thing. If I am to understand these switches should be able to handle 1Gbps / 1000Mbps right? The attached photo is what I am getting, 185Mbps. Is this really slow or am I not converting speeds right? 

 

If the speed is slow I have uploaded newst firmware, done a hard factory reset after, auto negotiate, tested cables for flaws, and have no Vlans/flow control/rate limits. The PCs are also set to auto negotiate and are 10/100/1000  

 

The test is done PC > 3ft Cat6 > Switch > 3ft Cat6 > PC. Using NetStress as the program. 

 

Thanks

  • Actually figured it out... Didn't have Netstress setup right. I am getting the throughput I am supposed to be getting.
