Network switch GS305E recieving 100 mbit/s instead of 500 mbit/s
I recently bought the GS305E network switch, but in my router it says that it only recieves 100 mbit/s instead of the 500 mbit/s that I have. since the day I bought this switch, I now have stutters ...
what router do you have?
Have you tried replacing the cable between router and switch? Make sure its a cat5e or greater cable to ensure its gigabit. A cat 5 cable will only* connect at 100mbps.
whare are the led's on the switch showing? (both lights green=gigabit only one=100mbps)
*some will hit gigabit but they tend to be short and higher quality ones. Rare
I uhm... I might have misread something and the switch turns out not to be the problem.... but thank you for your reply.
