100 megabits per second instead of 1 gigabit
Your network card is displaying a speed of 100 Mbit and isn't showing higher speeds like Gbit. Check the settings or configuration of your device to ensure it supports the desired bandwidth. If the issue persists, contact your network provider or hardware manufacturer for further assistance.
Consider purchasing a gigabit network card if you need higher data speeds or better performance for your devices.

Ensure you're using Cat6 Ethernet cables instead of Cat5. Opt for higher standards like Cat6a for better performance. Experiment with different cables—100 Mbps typically uses only 4 of the 8 wires, whereas 1 Gbps needs all 8. If a single wire is damaged, it may drop to 100 Mbps.
You're connecting your computer to a router, switch, or gateway. Ensure both ends have 1 Gbps ports. Note that some routers from 2019 still use 100 Mbps ports. Both devices must support 1 Gbps for the desired speeds.
I tested my router equipped with a Gbit port, plus an access point/extender and a switch also featuring a Gbit port. Still no improvement.
