There are a couple of things to bare in mind. If you now plug the desktop directly into the router and do the same you will be able to run speed tests without the hassle of moving the monitor etc. Once you have, you will have control over the Desktop via the laptop. A window will open asking you to logon to the PC. Right click on it and click "Remote Desktop" or words to that effect. Open up "This PC" or "My Computer" on the laptop, depending on your Windows version, and then navigate down to "Network" you should see your Desktop listed (you need to know its name).
ETHERNET STATUS AS 100MPS BUT ONLY 1 PC
Turn on both the PC and the Laptop, have them connected to your network at the same time. So if your PC has a gigabit network port (it will do), and so does the router (it seems to), but the cable only supports 100Mbps or the Ethernet ports on the homeplugs themselves are only 100Mbps (which is what that article seemed to be saying), that means you'll be stuck at 100Mbps for the device that's connected with that cable / homeplug. I'm not a network guy, but it's my understanding you need every 'link' in the chain to support gigabit Ethernet in order for your to get that. With regards to the local network speed, that's totally different to internet speeds. So at least you can upload stuff at least twice as fast as many people can download it (and 20 times faster than they can upload). I get about 8Mbps download speed and 1Mbps upload on my ADSL 2 plus (and I live in a town that actually has decent infrastructure, lawl). Businesses that need fast upload speeds will often have special internet packages designed around that. I believe this is actually set by the provider as the for majority of consumers download is more important than upload. I would ring but I have no minutes available on my phone. I appreciate any and all help, I've also emailed PCspecialist to see if they have an idea. Is it possible to get the ethernet port to 200Mbps? How do I achieve this? What is limiting my PC to 100Mbps?
ETHERNET STATUS AS 100MPS BUT ONLY 1 DRIVERS
I've tried updating the LAN drivers and intel chipset but have seen no difference in the Ethernet Port Status. I have my router ethernet plugged into a 200Mbps homeplug (TP-LINK TL-PA251KIT) which then links to the other same homeplug and connects to my pc via ethernet cable. Doesn't that mean it shouldn't be locked to 100Mbps? I looked up the motherboard on ASUS' website ( ) and it says LAN: Realtek 8111GR, 1 x Gigabit LAN Controller(s). My motherboard is: ASUS Z87M-PLUS: m-ATX, USB3.0, SATA 6.0, XFIRE. How can I improve this to take in my highest potential internet speed? I just moved house and now my internet speed is up to 200Mbps but my computer ethernet port status is limited to exactly 100.00Mbps.
