hello i believe that the built in modem on my motherboard is faulty i have a low speed problem, ive had a couple of engineers out to try solve this issue, ive replaced cables router socket, the engineers have tested my line nothing wrong with it.

i have just figured something out if i hold the ethernet cable at the back of my pc the speed is where it should be so im thinking that the mobo socket where it plugs in has a bad connection so im looking to replace it with a modem card but which one do i need?

currently paying for a 76Mb fibre connection need a modem that supports that, i am a amazon customer if you wish to provide a link please give me links for amazon im ready to buy. i am looking at their page but confused on which to get.

25m CAT6 ethernet cable
ACER 21.5in V223HQV
Windows 7 Professional 64bit
ASUS M5A99X EVO R2.0 .............motherboard
Corsair H75 HYDRO COOL
AMD FX8350 8 Core 4.33GHz
16GB Hyper fury 1600mhz DDR3 RAM (2x 8GB)
Asus Nvidia GeForce GTX 960 Strix Direct CU II 4GB
1TB SATA harddrive
2TB SATA hardrive
Corsair CX750W

It's quite possible that the plastic clip, on the CAT6 cable, that latches onto the back of the Ethernet port on your motherboard is broken. Have you tried and eliminating that the cable connectors end be replaced and then reconnected to the motherboard to resolve the issue the cheapest way? If it's not much of a hassle, why not invest in a wireless router and wireless USB dongle to live with wireless internet connectivity?

A little on the expensive side but worth it since it's reliable:

I would however like to reiterate that the wireless connectivity option would be a good idea.
