RAX20 LAN ports are capped at 100mbs

Be sure the ethernet drivers are up to date as well.
The RAX only supports up to 1Gb connection rates so you might set a manual connection rate on the adapter for 1Gb only.Please mark your thread as solved so others will know. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
