I've run my router and tested my PC with another cable that's confirmed to deliver proper speeds. Still, I only see 12 Mbps. Local file transfers work fine. I checked for malware and manually looked at processes and files, but found nothing suspicious. What might be wrong and how can I resolve it? Operating system: Windows 10.0.19045, Build 19045. CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X, 65°C. Graphics: Radeon RX 5700. RAM: 8GB DDR4 Single-Channel, 1066MHz. Motherboard: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. ROG STRIX B450-F Gaming. Storage: 465GB Samsung SSD, 860GB ATI Radeon, 931GB Samsung SSD. Audio: Realtek HD Audio, American Megatrends. Possible issues could be driver conflicts, outdated firmware, or network configuration problems. Try updating drivers, checking for OS updates, and verifying network settings.
Thanks for the update. It seems unrelated to the issue. I’ve confirmed it’s gigabit rated and tried another cable on a different port, also gigabit. I refreshed my BIOS, disabled driver updates, removed the network driver, restarted, and reinstalled. Still no improvement.
Your temperatures are elevated. For the CPU, navigate to Windows power plan settings and proceed to advanced options. Expect a large window displaying more than ten settings. Adjust the minimum processor percentage to zero and provide your CPU temperature at idle, please. Although some suggest this isn't essential for desktops, maintaining lower temperatures can still conserve power even with minor performance reductions. The mainboard's 65°C reading seems quite high. Do you have adequate airflow, or have you adjusted voltages or clock speeds? Regarding network performance, is this a new build and has it been optimized consistently, or is this an isolated incident? If the issue remains stable, explore the BIOS/UEFI settings under basic or classic views to fine-tune the NIC speed. You might have switched it to full 100Mbit. Also, review the Ethernet adapter properties in the Windows adapter settings—right-click Ethernet and adjust as needed.
