Discovered this on a laptop after running the cable. Wifi was getting 250mbps vs 10/100 speeds
A TV I mean why not, but on a Laptop? Is it from the nineties O_o ?
My canon ink tank type printer from mid COVID era is the same, didn't realise it was only 10/100 on the wired port until I was looking at the switch one day and wondered why I had a yellow light instead of green, was about to run a new network cable until I checked the printer
I guess you have to have a very particular workload, and printer, to need a gigabit line...
Right?
Casually printing highway ad posters at home, nothing special
Printers really don't need even 100mbps though. They're just not fast enough to spit out the prints your sending even at those speeds. So I get it.
I get it too, but it was a bit of a shock given that the selling points for everything is bigger better faster stronger, otherwise why would people upgrade. It's like finding something with a micro USB port on it instead of type c
Could be something wrong with a cable? A damaged cable can downgrade your connection from gigabit to 100mb
Or to 10mbps, half duplex. I've witnessed this. My former company was trying to sell a client a new server because it was too slow when I noticed it was only operating at 10/half, instead of the 1000/full that both it and the switch was capable of. Some testing later, and the problem was at the server side cable termination, a quick re-termination and they were up to gigabit. Grabbed a spare run to the switch and connected another cable after verifying it was good and the company went from 10M/half to a LAG of 2000/full in the matter of about an hour.
The speed complaints stopped.
