4 connections for 100Mbps. 8 connections for 1Gbps. If any of the 8 wires aren't set up correctly, you'll be stuck. You won't reach 1 Gbps.

Everything is correctly positioned. Uses an 8-wire cable straight through.

There could be an issue. I would attempt to rewire the connectors. Have you experimented with a different cable to ensure it isn’t the cable itself, but possibly a device?

In reality, I confirmed it too—every single wire in all cables is working properly (verified using a special RJ-45 tester). That’s what I mentioned in my initial update.

Through networking it’s either the cables or device settings if everything checks out. Once confirmed, examine the devices to ensure they support Gigabit and are connected at those speeds. Occasionally driver problems arise, or the network card might be set for 100 Mbps despite being capable of higher speeds. Speed configurations can be adjusted manually. Some networking gear uses indicators to display current port performance—like my router showing green for Gigabit and orange for 100Mbps, matching the capabilities of my HDHome device.

Choose either T568A or T568B, but ensure both connections match. Ignoring a standard causes wiring issues and weak signals.

I understand your point, but both units work with gigabit connections and display both orange and green signals. It seems the issue isn't related to drivers. Testing with various PC and router setups—both Gigabit—showed no problems, suggesting the problem lies elsewhere. Regarding the cable color, yes, the order matters; only matching wire colors ensure a proper connection.

NVM... Hue still isn't the issue... What really counts is matching pairs with identical colors linked to particular contact groups (like 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8). I tried 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8... No one mentions this confusing mismatch, but it probably relates to interference between wire pairs. Also, keeping the same color sequence at the other end is important for straight-through cables. For crossover cables, the setup changes slightly—on the second end, the wires swap positions: first with third, second with sixth, fourth with seventh, and fifth with eighth...
