    Ethernet Link Speed at 10 Mbps

    Hello, I have been having some slow ethernet. I went through the settings and in the properties for mt connection it says the link speed (transmit/receive) is at 10/10 Mbps. When I try wifi its capped at 520 Mbps but its very unstable most of the time, so I want to use ethernet. Here is some information about my situation:

    I would really appreciate additional ideas on how to fix this problem.

    Thanks

    Ethernet speed limited to 10mbps

    Hello! My name is Mostafa, and I will try my best to assist you with this so that you find a satisfactory solution.

    I’m sorry that you are experiencing this issue. The issue is not with your cable or router. It could be a driver issue or a hardware issue with your motherboard.

    Please try updating your BIOS.

    Try to disable “Green Ethernet” feature by following these steps:

    1. Open Device Manager.

    2. Expand “Network adapters”.

    3. Right-click on your Ethernet adapter and select “Properties”.

    4. Click on the “Advanced” tab.

    5. Select “Auto Disable” or "ARP Offload" from the list of properties.

    6. Change the value to “Disabled”.

    7. Click “OK” to save changes.

    Change the Speed and Duplex:

    1. Open Device Manager.

    2. Expand “Network adapters”.

    3. Right-click on your Ethernet adapter and select “Properties”.

    4. Click on the “Advanced” tab.

    5. Select “Speed & Duplex" from the list of properties.

    6. Change the value

    7. Click “OK” to save changes.

    If you still have issues, it might be worth contacting MSI support for further support. Thank you.

    Best,

    Mostafa

    ethernet link speed keeps changing on its own

    Ethernet speed limited to 10mbps

    Hi, I have an issue with limited speed of Ethernet connection.

    My setup:
    1. Modem in the basement
    2. Router on the first floor

    3. PC with MSI PRO Z-690-A motherboard (Win10 Pro)

    3. LAN Cable category: CAT 5E

    My speed checked via speedtest should be ~ 1Gbps / 500 Mbps, but when I connect my PC to router it is capped at 10/10 Mbps

    [table][tr]Link speed (Receive/Transmit): 10/10 (Mbps) Link-local IPv6 address: fe80::5fef:419c:35d3:43c2%3 IPv4 address: 192.168.0.168 IPv4 DNS servers: 192.168.0.1 Manufacturer: Intel Description: Intel(R) Ethernet Controller (3) I225-V Driver version: 1.0.2.14 Physical address (MAC): D8-BB-C1-93-B5-38 [/tr][/table]

    But if I add switch between router and PC then Link speed is not capped

    [table][tr]Link speed (Receive/Transmit): 1000/1000 (Mbps) Link-local IPv6 address: fe80::5fef:419c:35d3:43c2%3 IPv4 address: 192.168.0.168 IPv4 DNS servers: 192.168.0.1 Manufacturer: Intel Description: Intel(R) Ethernet Controller (3) I225-V Driver version: 1.0.2.14 Physical address (MAC): D8-BB-C1-93-B5-38 [/tr][/table]

    What I have checked so far: (I will update this list with all suggestions and outcomes)
    1. Cable - is ok, cable tester says so as well as connecting another PC with same cable.
    2. Router is ok, another PC is connected directly to the same router and there is no issue with speed limit.

    3. Drivers - reinstalled - Link speed still capped.

    4. Ethernet configuration - completely removed and configured again - Link speed still capped.

    5. Speed & Duplex is set to Auto Negotiation, but I also checked with 1Gpbs and 2,5 Gbps - Link speed still capped.

    6. Green Ethernet (ARP Offload) is Enabled - after disabling it link speed is still capped.

    7. BIOS updated to newest version - Link speed still capped.

    8. Intel(R) Ethernet Controller (3) I225-V drivers updated - Link speed still capped.

    9. Updated all motherboard related drivers to the nevest version - Link speed still capped.

    10. Reinstalled widows (without removing data) - Link speed still capped.

    11. Changed cables to CAT 6a - Link speed still capped.

    12. Resetting BIOS configuration - Link speed still capped.

    13. In contact with MSI support - so far no solution, I have requested contact with MS to send them motherboard for warranty repair.

    any idea what else could be done?
