We're unsure about the distinction between wired and wireless, but could you share the Bluetooth chipset you're using?
You're experiencing confusion because the wired connection supports 80Mbps, yet the wireless chip isn't detected or functioning properly, while Bluetooth is still being located but not working.
Hi, I noticed your internet speed dropped from 1.1 Gbps to 80 Mbps. It might be due to interference from your cat 8 cable or Wi-Fi point. Try disconnecting the cable and plugging it back in. Also, check if your onboard Wi-Fi card is functioning properly—swap it with another if possible. Your Bluetooth issue could also affect performance; test it separately.
A wired setup relies on a physical wire linking it to a router or access point, which your ISP supplies. A wireless connection lacks any cables between you and the network device. You mentioned taking out your built-in Wi-Fi card by dismantling your motherboard—this doesn’t give much clarity. Did you correctly reattach those wires? It seems unclear whether the issue lies with improper reconnection or a faulty cable. There appears to be a wireless wired connection, but details are missing. This setup should have a proper Ethernet port, possibly using a decent Cat6 or Cat6a cable, avoiding copper-clad aluminum. Try again with that.
You chose a Cat 8 for reasons that don’t really matter. Cat 5e supports about 2.5 Gbps, while Cat 6a offers 10 Gbps—still limited compared to what you need. A 8Gbps connection is overkill and can create problems. In practice, 1 Gigabit internet delivers roughly 80 MB/s download, which usually translates to 60–85 MB/s depending on your setup.
All threads combined. Stay focused on the questions you have. Clarifying your points will improve the support you receive.
It's important to note that bits and bytes are distinct units. A gigabit equals 125 megabytes. Generally, download speeds will range from 60 to 90 megabytes per second, though top servers can reach up to 100-125 megabytes depending on conditions like traffic and local usage. Eight megabits corresponds to one megabyte.
