Hi so recently i have upgraded my internet speed, it used too be 100Mbps and now its 200mMbps but i am not getting those speeds on my desktop which is wired by Ethernet. My wifi is hitting 200Mbps+ easy. I tried too connect the same Ethernet cable to another laptop and that reaches 200Mbps+ very easily. This made me realise it might actually be my motherboard. My motherboard is a AsRock Z370 Extreme4, I have tried everything like updating my drivers, checking my router settings to deleting all network drivers in device manger and letting it reinstall them after restarting my Pc. Is there anything else i could do ? Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

Dear Rzoro,
Thank you for posting your query to the ASRock forum.
Regarding your question, please try the followings:
1. Install different LAN cable with different LAN ports on the router.
2. Try restarting the router.
3. Download the latest LAN driver 25.0 from the following link:
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/25016?product=82186
-While installing the driver, please make sure that "Intel PROSet Adapter Configuration Utility" is installed.
-Launch Intel PROSet Adapter Configuration Utility.
-Turn off the "Energy Efficient Ethernet" and other energy-saving settings.
-Select the "Speed & Duplex", then select the "1.0Gbps Full Duplex" manually.
With thanks,
ASRock TSD
