ES205G Ports Limited to 10/100 Mbps
Really annoyed by the setup of the ES205G ... among other things not working, my clients cannot download speeds greater than 100 Mbps.
No it's not the Ethernet cables.
No there is no throttling enabled.
Speed test on each client show 95-100 Mbps
I connect both with my old TP Link switch ( not omada model ) and my download speeds are close to that of my ISP at 300+ Mbps.
Come on TP-Link ... The hoops we are jumping through to get these "easy-switches" up and running is getting silly.

Hi @chaderick9
Thanks for posting in our business forum.
Uplink is gigabit, so it means the port is at least working.
Back to the cable, if you swap that uplink on the rest of the powers, will it link up to 1Gbps?
Yes? That's your cable quality issue which fails to auto-negotiate with the switch. Something is not right with the wires anyway.

I did ... Honestly, this is sad to admit, but it came down to a poorly terminated cat6 cable.

@chaderick9 Did you find any resolution for this? I've just received an ES205GP and have found that port 5 is only negotiating at 100 Mbps. That's despite testing on three different cables, two of which were brand new, straight out-of-bag cat 7 cables which other devices are successfully negotiating at 2.5 Gbps.
Edited to add that the same cables when connected to ports 1-4 negotiate at 1 Gbps

Any problems with the link speed originate from the cable, as I mentioned in any posts that discuss the link speed.
