    1000mbps connection capping at 10mps

    I would have to buy another, but I found one thats only $10 so its pretty cheap. Thoughts? https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833114006&cm_re=pci_ethernet_adapter-_-33-114-006-_-Product

    1000mbps connection capping at 10mps

    I'm using just a single ethernet port from the wall. There's only 1 port. I tested my laptop with the same cable and that works so I'm assuming its on my computer's end. I just find it strange that everything works fine, then today it starts randomly doing this.

    1000mbps connection capping at 10mps

    I dont see why they would limit my MAC address. Is there a way to check? I'm thinking of just getting a new adapter to test it. I also tried "changing" my mac address, which apparently is impossible. But I used this: https://www.online-tech-tips.com/computer-tips/how-to-change-mac-address/ And...

    1000mbps connection capping at 10mps

    My thought was maybe it was the wall outlet that was the issue, so I tested the same cable and outlet with my laptop, and that works fine. I inspected the cable and it seems to be fine. My ethernet port on my computer also seems perfect. As for the router, I live on campus so I can't really...

    1000mbps connection capping at 10mps

    This morning I noticed my downloads were very slow (~9mbps vs 1000mbps, which is what I usually get). Under my connection status, it says my speed is only 10mbps, this should read 1000mbps. My cable still functions fine. There's not outside interference (tested same cable with laptop and got...

    Computer link speed shows 100Mbps limit, should be capable of 1000Mbps.

    I too am having this problem. I have always had a 1gbps connection, and all of a sudden its capped at 10mbps. I change speed/duplex to be 1gbps, and it doesn't change anything, still capped at 10mbps

    Download/Upload capping at unusually low speed

    Flushing DNS did not fix it. I uninstalled the driver as you said, rebooted, and it seemed to install the device again, however it did not fix the issue. So I downloaded and installed the driver from the link you gave me. This too did not fix it. I'm going to try running in safe mode and virus...

    mother board says CPU fan running under 200 but dont think it is

    As Satan said, your CPU may not need any higher rpm's. Try going into the BIOS and enabling manual fan speed, and set it at 100%. Otherwise, if your CPU is overheating, the temp monitor may be sending mixed signals to your fan, causing it to run at lower speeds than it should be. Start with a...

    GPU FAN stuck at 100% Very loud

    A lot of Graphics Cards have custom programs that can change its fans' speeds. For example, my ASUS ROG Strix has a program that can enable manual vs auto fan speed. If you have it on manual, it will be set at a speed rather than adjusting to load and temperature. I suggest looking up if your...

    Budgeting question regarding custom build

    If you're building everything from scratch (no old parts), you can probably get under $2000, but you may have to compromise some places. Get a Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo for a cooler. You can pick up some Medium tower cases for under $60. There are some good monitors for under $130.

    Download/Upload capping at unusually low speed

    my down/up is usually about 1000mb/s (I live on a college campus). However, this morning I noticed streams and downloads were running slow, so I ran a speed test and sure enough I was only getting about 10mb/s up/down, way slower than usual. My first thought was maybe the internet on campus...

    New GPU increases CPU Temp?

    I have a mid tower, some kind of cooler master. I had only 1 fan other than the cpu fan, and the 4 i ordered were cooler master 120mm fans
