    Windows Ethernet Status Speed shows 1.0GBPS but I only get 100MBPS.


    I have a Windows 10 PC that can clearly show in ncpa.cpl Ethernet Status that I can have 1.0 Gbps Speed but Speedtest only shows 90-92mbs and 45mb upload. What should I do?

    Can I connect to my ISP@200mbps through ethernet cable when I have a TAP-Windows Adapter V9 card installed which shows 100mbps as it's speed?

    Hi there,

    I have recently bought a new laptop and have a 200mbps internet line installed. My issue is this. When I plug the ethernet cable from the router into my laptop and run a speedtest, the max I am getting is less than 100mbps, (usually around 93-95mbpsDL).

    I then remove the ethernet cable and run the speedtest over the wifi and am hitting 200mbps, which is great.

    The status of my Ethernet 3 adaptor lists 100mbps. Yet this is a top spec brand new laptop (07/2016). Am I right then in thinking that almost all new laptops shipped have 100mbps max DL speed limit?? And therefore any fast connection over an ethernet is just
    wasted??

    If so, this seems very odd to me. Can anyone help with this?

    Thanks in advance.

    Ethernet speed

    Have a Dell Inspiron with an Intel Core 13 7th Gen processor running Windows 10.

    I just wired Cat6 cable from my modem to this computer as I wasn't getting good download speed via WIFI.

    It appears my ethernet speed is set at a max of 100Mbps, can I up the speed to 300Mbps?

    If so, how?

    Gigabit Network Card is only showing 100mbps in network adapter>status

    Thanks for the reply. Initially i had gig speed with this pc until this 100mbps prob appeared. Currently my other laptop is receiving gig speed with the same cable.

    Another pointer to add on.
    Sometimes when i change the port on the router, the pc reads 1gbps. After 1-2 hrs it will disconnect and reconnect back to 100mbps
