Speeds capped at 100MB

[PowerUser42985]

I just upgraded to gigabit internet, I went and checked everything. My ethernet cable supports gigabit speed. My router supports gigabit speed. And so does my motherboard. I have troubleshooted and figured out that it's something on my end not the ISP. When I check the status it shows that it's running at 100M/Full Duplex. Is there a setting that needs changed?

   Only the model number.

According to the documentation it supports it https://www.netgear.com/images/datasheet/networking/wifirouter/R6080.pdf?cid=wmt_netgear_organic

the very document you linked to shows you the lan/wan speed and it only being 10/100mbps.

   Which part of "the documentation"?  Are you looking at this bit (page
2):

      [...] Fast download speeds up to 1000Mbps. [...]

or this bit (page 4):

      Fast Ethernet

or this bit (page 5):

      o Five (5) 10/100Mbps (1 WAN and 4 LAN)
        Fast Ethernet ports with auto-sensing
        technology
?

   There's some inconsistency there, but the majority view seems to be
"Fast Ethernet":

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fast_Ethernet

   And then there's the "Technical Specifications" section in the R6080
User Manual:

      LAN   Four RJ-45 ports supporting 10/100BASE-T

      WAN   One RJ-45 port supporting 10/100BASE-T

Plus other references to "Fast Ethernet".

   Given your experience, which do you believe?
