    Question Cat 5E speeds limited to 100mb/s

    Hello all, I apologize as this might be a bit of a read. To preface the situation, I have 1.5gb up/down with my service provider. My computer is connected via CAT6 directly into the back of the router and is getting speeds above 1gb so nothing strange there. We have a CAT6 cable that connects...

    [SOLVED] CAT6 minimum cable length?

    Hi, I'm trying to find the perfect ethernet cable for my home. I have a 1gbps download speed and 500mbps upload. My computer is around 20 meters away from my main router, so I looked on the internet and saw that CAT6 cables were relatively cheap for that length, around 10 dollars. I went for...

    [SOLVED] Why am I capped at 94+ mbps?

    We have a 100mbps plan and our ISP just upgraded our plan today to 300mbps. The problem is that I noticed my speed didn't change at all and when I asked my sisters husband at the other room connected to the modem says he got 200+mbps currently. Yes, I am using a Cat5e ethernet cable and I am...

    [SOLVED] Wiring Cat5E Through Pre Existing Phone Lind

    Hello, This should be pretty simple since all the twisted pairs are already here but I’m not exactly sure how to go about it.

    [SOLVED] Home wiring mess

    I have a home wired for Cat5. All the wires in the closet were cut and dangling. I made the effort to wire then all to a patch panel. The remaining issue is that I was only able to identify about 5 of the 30 to the wall plates. I have gone through two different sets of Wire Tone Generator...

    [SOLVED] Struggling to get the 1gb speed out of the XB6 (needed for video conferencing)

    Struggling to get the 1gb speed out of the XB6 (much needed for telework & video conferencing). We have the Comcast XB6, direct wired (cat5e) to the PC, and it is only getting maybe 170Mbps download. Is it the cat5e cable? Is it the NIC?
