Multi-Gig Switches and Google 2 gig fiber

Question

This one has me at my wits end!&nbsp; I recently purchased a Netgear Multi-GIG XS505M to take advantage of my new 2 GIG Fiber connection.&nbsp; In addition, I added a 10 gig ASUS XG-C100-C card to my PC.&nbsp; Connections as follows:&nbsp; 10 GIG line out of Google router into switch port and 10 gig out of PC into switch.&nbsp; All link lights show 10 gig connection.&nbsp; However, when I run Google speed test, it only shows 576 MB down.&nbsp; To trouble shoot I tried all 4 ports ...no difference.&nbsp; I connected PC directly to Google router ... 2,036 down.Called Netgear support .. they determined switch was apparently bad.&nbsp; I replaced today with new switch and EXACTLY the same happened!&nbsp; The switch is knocking 75% off the speed.&nbsp; Any ideas?&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Thanks....&nbsp;

Client OS and driver version where this XG-C100-C adapter is installed? Grab the current drivers for the ACQ107 from&nbsp;https://www.marvell.com/support/downloads.html ....&nbsp;

Thank you for the note. &nbsp;I downloaded the most recent drivers when I installed the card. &nbsp;I'm a little skeptic if the drivers linked ... there are no Windows 10 drivers listed ... If they haven't updated drivers since WIndows 7 and 8 ... I'm concerned! &nbsp;:-)

However .. I'll give them a try.&nbsp;Thanks...&nbsp;

Just select AQ107 and you get access to the 32 or 64 bit Windows drivers - and the Flash updater for the adapter (also for Windows 10 32 and 64 bit). Lots of issues with these early 10G/MultiGig cards when it comes ot reliability and performance - and the Asus drivers are hopelessly outdated....&nbsp;
