My system specs:

  • OS: Windows 10, 64-Bit
  • CPU: Intel i7 - 6800K CPU @ 3.40 GHz
  • RAM: 32 GB
  • GPU: Nvidia GTX 1070
  • MB: MSI x99A SLI Plus

My wireless adapter on both 2.4 and 5G wireless puts out over 117 Mbps speed test, but when wired directly into the Ethernet port I can get only about 10 Mbps. I have tried 4 different CAT5 Ethernet cables to make sure it wasn't a wire issue, and tried them in all 4 ports as well.

My router is a brand new Nighthawk 7000 Router. Ethernet drivers are up to date and working properly. I can't understand how my wireless is faster and more stable than my wired connection.

So to put it quite simply. How can I get a wired Ethernet connection at 100 Mbps like I can with my wireless connection? Why can I only get 10 Mbps?

You can check you speed negociation to know the state of your network card.

powershell "Get-NetAdapter | SELECT name, fullduplex | where name -eq ‘card name’"
