So on my NETGEAR Nighthawk R6900, it shows that the LAN port going to my PC is only at 100Mbps, indicated by an Amber light.

But the LAN port going to the Xbox in my living room is a White light indication a Gigabit connection (According to what I could find and what the NETGEAR website says.)

My PC has Killer Ethernet that supports a Gigabit connection.

Could it be the type of Cable i'm using? Maybe its old and doesn't support it?

Just checked, it's set to 1000 but still only saying the speed is 100. The ethernet cable I have is slightly old, I might pic up a new cable just to see, and because it's starting to tear too so there's no loss in trying
