GS108 Switch Uplink Speed Drops from 1000 to 100 Mbps
I have a GS108 that initially negotiates at 1000 Mbps with my ASUS RT-AC68W, but after ~30 min to a few hours drops down to 100 Mbps. I can see this on the router's status screen (vis web interface) ...
Hi grossner,
Welcome to the community! :)
If ever the ASUS RT-AC68W router is not yet on the latest firmware version, I suggest you to upgrade its firmware to the latest version then perform a factory reset and reconfigure the settings from scratch. Afterwards, check if the same problem still occurs.
If the same problem still occurs, if ever you have a spare switch, disconnect the GS108 switch from the existing network then connect your spare switch and monitor if the same problem occurs. If the same problem occurs, then you need to ask assistance from Asus regarding the router. Otherwise, if the problem is gone using the spare switch, I suggest you to replace the GS108.
