I have recently purchase a "linksys Ea6300 Ac1200 router", and am running CAT6 cables to all the devices. What is going on is that my laptop which has a gigabit NIC and a Gigabit cable running to a Gigabit port is only transferring at 100Mbps. I set the main FTP devices to static routing so that I can use filezilla and just transfer faster. I have also tried setting it to automatic but still running at 100Mbps. I have also tried switching ports on the router, but router makes that port run at 100Mbps. I have tried another known working 1Gbps cable and still only 100Mbps.
Laptop is an Asus K52J.
This is a screenshot of my configuration.
This is the log from my router.

Port 4 X
I have tried factory resetting the router, but that left it in the same state.
Feel Free to ask for anything else that could help get this thing configured so I can transfer my files faster and not take a week to back up my hard drive. I would like to get this thing solve, and in turn learn more about how this all works. The weird part is that other 4 devices are set to similar configurations.
It seems that even my gigabit cable that is running to the WAN port is running at only 100Mbps.
My laptop is connected to Port 1, I have also tried to force the NIC to connect at 1Gbps. Though it still only connected at 100Mbps. I set the speed and duplex setting the NIC to 1Gbps Full Duplex, but still the same issue. Just need some guidance to get this thing back to normal. The Laptop has been moved through the ports, but has yet to get 1Gbps even when using one of the cables that is on either of the 3 other ports that are registering at 1Gbps. Makes me think Laptop config could be the issue.
Thanks in advance.
