I just setup my network with 2 gigabit cards and a gigabit router. The cards are D-Link DGE-530T and the router is a DGL-4100.
When I check the status of both nics they both say 1gbit connection. However, when I transfer a 100meg file between the 2 PCS, I only get 7megabytes/s. Checking to see if it was the hard drives causing problems, I started a second transfer off 2 differen't drives and it moved it up to about 8.5 Megabytes/s.
I don't know what else to do to check. I am using Cat6 cable.
The router has the newest firmware.
Any ideas?
*UPDATE*
I have now gotten it to go 12 megs/s each way when I ran 184 pings to my storage server.
