Wired Ethernet line to pc is running at 100mbps instead of 1gb
I just connected my pc via ethernet cable (Cat5e) to the nighthawk r7000. It blinks red and is running at 100mbps, instead of 1 gb. The troubleshooting steps I have already done are as follows. ...
Okay so I purchased a ethernet cable tester, turns out the cable was indeed bad. I went ahead and created a new cable, and it does have a gigabit connection.
Lesson learned dont trust your laptops lan port, try more than on device, and most likely it is the cable.
Okay so I have found it
It is a intel r I218-V adapter
It is under advanced
I found 2 interesting things one is gigabit master slave mode, which is set to auto detect. And Speed and duplex which is set to auto negoitaite
I do not know what that first one is but ill try chaning the second one and see if anything happens
I don't think it'll matter, but the manual setting for "gigabit master slave mode" would be slave. If it makes no difference, set it back to auto-detect.
