No, you can't have a bad motherboard. It's a hardware component, not an abstract concept.

The issue involves understanding bit and byte conversions. You mentioned connections with 2.5Gb LAN and Wi-Fi 6E, but it looks like your router can't support those speeds. The conversion details are important here: 1Gbit equals 125 MB, 10GBit is about 1250 MB, roughly 1GB is 1000 Mb, and 1Gb is 1000 Mb.
You should upgrade to a 10Gb router for better performance with your existing 1Gb connection.
Usually not, since the router wasn’t specified, making it hard to determine if a default setting is affecting performance. Could you confirm the model and share how to adjust the settings? I’m also thinking about bringing in another device to check if the issue continues.
Not for 1GBit, but yes for 10GBit? None of what you're saying makes sense anymore. Please clarify: What connection speeds should your ISP offer? Which speeds does your router support? What capability does your motherboard provide? And what performance are you experiencing on your computer?
I have a 1Gb fiber connection. It’s supposed to deliver 1 Gb speed or at least 80%. But I’m only getting around 469Mbps download and 236Mbps upload. Could the issue be with the router, the Mbps rating, or the service itself? My router might be outdated and need an upgrade.
Standard definitions are clear: 1Gig equals 1Giga byte, and 1Gbit equals 1Giga bit. Speeds like 400Mbps translate to roughly 400 megabytes per second, which means at least 5 gigabits per second—likely 10 gigabits. Confirming, 1 byte equals 8 bits, so the numbers add up. It’s getting a bit confusing, but the basics are solid.
