Good day,
I've recently built my own desktop and it's working just fine except I'm a bit fuzzy on the LEDs shown at the Ethernet port for the onboard NIC. I know the steady light shows the connection speed and the blinking one indicates network activity, but this NIC (an Intel I217-V) is a Gigabit Ethernet card.
Therefore I expected a green light to indicate the Gigabit connection speed but instead I see an amber/red-orange looking light. Could anyone explain what this means?
