Not getting 2GB on TL-SG108-M2
Hello,
I have the TL-SG108-M2 8 port switch and can't seem to get any connection speed over 900mbps. I have the BE9300 as my router which connects to my switch. When I try my connection speed using the ethernet cable used from my router to the switch I get over 2Gbps. I tried switching different cables and ports from the switch to my desktop and never goes above the 900mbps. Is there any other setting I need to do or firmware upgrade? Thanks.
TL-SG108-M2 is an unmanaged switch - it's a plug and play - there's no settings there.
You can check the negotiated speed between your BE9300 and the swicth from the router's WebGUI here:
If the speed is correct then the issue is probably due to bad cabling or desktop network card capabilities / drivers.
It's mandatory to use a good quality cables (Cat 6) and make sure that you're with the latest desktop network card drivers.
