So I know this issue pops up for a lot for people, and I have tried pretty all of the solutions that I could find, things like changing Speed & Duplex to 1gbps, disabling power savings, etc, but nothing seems to work.
My motherboard is an X570 Tuf, with Realtek Gaming Gbe Family Controller.
I have eliminated my router and my cable from the equation because I can get 1000mbps, no problem, when I plug the same cable (still connected to the router) into another computer, so this pretty much leaves the PC as the culprit.
I also notice that in Windows Settings > Advanced Network Settings > Ethernet: when I change something (like Speed & Duplex) the Link Speed will change to 1000mbps for a few seconds while the adapter is reconfiguring, but once it reconnects it will drop back down to 100mbps again.
I've tried the LAN driver from the ASUS website (10.50.511.2021), and I tried a newer driver from Realtek (1168.16.1123.2023), and even an old Windows 10 driver, but neither will give me the 1gbps speed that it's supposed to have.
I've also checked the port and it all looks clean, and the pins don't look bent or anything.
Anyone have any other ideas or suggestions?
Or could the controller just be flat-out broken?
