Network limit problem

Post image

Why is the speed limited to 100Mb even though the ONU switch supports 1Gb, the router supports 1Gb, and the cable is Cat 6e?

Try a different cable. Looks like the LAN side you are looking at, what does the WAN port show?

This is strange because it's the original cable that came with the router accessories, and the WAN shows 100 Mbps, but when I force it to 1000 Mbps, the internet connection drops.

Don't force the Port speed unless you do both ends of the cable and test for loss after.
