I recently installed a new computer with an Asus Rog Strix z690-F motherboard, which supports 2.5 Gbps Ethernet. I’m using the newest drivers and connected to an ASUS ax89x router via a 10 Gbps port. My computer reports a connection speed of 2.5 Gbps, while Windows shows it as 2.5 Gbps. During a speed test, my download is only reaching 400 Mbps, whereas my actual connection is 1 Gbps. I’ve switched between two different Ethernet cables and even tested on an older PC with gigabit internet, which pulls 950 Mbps. It seems something is limiting my download speed on this new machine.

Do you need IPv6 support? If not, turn it off in the adapter settings. Also, test with this version.
