Ok. So I just upgraded my system from an AsRock Z75 Pro3 with i5-3570k to an ASUS Z87-A with an i5-4670k.
When going through all of the usual setup procedures I do a speedtest on my internet as I was looking forward to seeing the upgrade from the 10/100 switch that was on the AsRock to the gigabit switch that supposed to be on the ASUS as I have a 150/150 connection.
However, upon doing a speedtest I find out that I am still capping out at 95 megabits per second.
I have gone through windows adapter settings and switched the setting for speed/duplex from auto to 1G full duplex.
I then proceeded to double check that the same setting was applied in my router settings. I have adjusted firewall and ip address/dns settings to what they should be.
In the BIOS I only seem to have the option of turning on/off the lan controller with no speed settings so I assume that there aren't any.
What should I be looking into to get the 150/150 speeds I pay for?
I have installed the latest drivers for the motherboard from ASUS.
I am not sure if the BIOS needs an update or not. It probably does. Maybe that's what's causing this?
I have tested different ports and different cables and it's none of those.
Any help in fixing this issue would be greatly appreciated.
