gs305
Hello, I have a GS305 Unmanaged Gigabit Switch with my home computer and work computer pluged in. Even though my connection says 1Gbps, when doing an Internet Speed Test on my home pc, I'm getting 9...
Yes, I have this issue too. I use the GS305 to connect two computers to one Ethernet line in the room. My normal Internet speed is north of 200 Mbps, but the speed soon drops to 94 Mbps, no matter which computer I use.
Here's what's interesting: first, I never have both computers on at the same time. Second, if I reset the switch (power off then power on), I'm immediately back up to 200+ Mbps on the computer I'm using, but only temporarily. I have no idea why the speed drops below 50%.
Any help would be appreciated.
