Internet speed issues with Ethernet connection Gigabit internet isn't functioning properly via Ethernet.
I set up my new computer and connected to Ethernet. It frequently switches to gigabit mode for a brief moment, with lights flickering between green and orange unpredictably. When the power stays on for a short time, it operates at gigabit speeds, but after a while it stabilizes to green and maintains a steady connection at 100mbps.
Confirm if you're facing issues with a gigabit connection or if the Ethernet speed is the problem. The symptoms usually point to a faulty Ethernet cable. Consider using a different cable from a trusted brand.
WIFI is active, but it wasn't mentioned if you were already connected. Are you checking speeds with a specific device or tool?
WiFi is active both wirelessly and via Ethernet, and I’ve previously connected to WiFi. I’m testing my connection with Speedtest.net, and Windows reports 100mbps.
However, this connection also functions with various gadgets to access gigabit-speed internet.
You might want to give it another try. Faulty cables can sometimes function, but often not consistently—especially if they show minor damage or exposed wires. Have you checked for updated drivers for your network interface card? What type of NIC model does your computer use? Also, consider the other gadgets connected to the network.
