Your Ethernet network is running slower than you expect
If your Ethernet network is running slower than you
expect, check the speed of each Ethernet component.
For best results, all Ethernet components should be
standard Ethernet (10 Mbps), Fast Ethernet (100 Mbps or
10/100 Mbps), or Gigabit Ethernet (1000 Mbps or
10/100/1000 Mbps). A mixture of Ethernet, Fast
Ethernet, and Gigabit Ethernet components will result in
your network running at the slowest component speed.
