EDIT: Thank you everyone who responded. I am dumb dumb and was getting confused on the conversion from 1 Ggiabit to 100 Megabyte. To throw another wrench in the works, I had made a typo in my original post but it ended up not being impactful. I meant to write my speed was limited to 100 MiB (Mebibyte) but again I was confused here because I was reading that as 100 Mib (Mebibit)

So anyways, thank you all who chimed in. Apologies for my dumb.

Hey everyone,

I’ve been trying to troubleshoot this issue for a while now. Here’s my setup:

I have CAT 6a cables in my walls, should support 10G. I have a Cisco C1300 Switch connecting them. Each port on the C1300 is 10G.

I have a Synology NAS on my LAN that has a 1G LAN port. My laptop has a 1G LAN.

Now I know these speeds are theoretical and I’ll never actually reach those speeds. But the issue I’m running into is that everything on my network seems to operate at a max of 100MB/s. All settings on the C1300 show that they’ve negotiated at 1G. So what am I doing that limits data transfer to 100?

I’m also getting limited to 100MB when I try to download something like from Steam but I understand that adds a lot of additional things that could cause the issue so for now I’m just focusing on my LAN. It’s just odd that even WAN speeds appear to be limited to the same speed as my internal.

Does anyone have any ideas of what I could check or what I may have misconfigured?
