3BB fibre (1GPS/100MPs)

[colinchaffers]

I have just moved to 3BB fibre (1GPS/100MPs), my WIFI speeds are about 4/500mps, however, my ethernet speeds on my PC are about 100mps since installation, where as my old AIS 300mps package was typically 200mps, Ive logged on to the router and cant see anything that might help, before I call them as anyone had a similar experience.

Are you connecting to 2.4 or 5GHz......We have 3BB.

 

2.4 runs at 60Mbps, but is 'long' range

 

5 runs at 500Mbps but 'short' range

change ethernet cable. 100 mbps means your pc connects to your router at 100 Mbps fast lan, not gigabit speeds.

Go into Control Panel, Network, Change Adapter Settings. Left click on your 3BB connection and make sure the Speed is set to 1.0 Gb/s.

If not left click on Properties, Configure your Controller (usually Realtk PCI Family Contoller), Advanced,  Speed & Duplex, and change Value to 1.0 Gbs Full Duplex. 

I just bought some CAT 8 cables from Lazada to make sure they were not any culprit, which they were not. CAT 6 is fine.

Then read my post telling you how to change it.

Many  thannks to all of you, I have Windows 11 so the change to the adpators was different, but I found a video on YouTube, but it made no difference, and I was thinking it cant be a bloody cable, and when I switched it out it sprung into life 900MPS. KR Colin

Turning your router off (de-powering in modern talk) can change the speed. Oh yes, turn it back on first. (That's called power-cycling) 555

I did try that when I changed the settings, but it made no difference. KR Colin
