Slow Ethernet
Slow Ethernet
(OP)
This may be off topic but I thought I'd start here...
I have a computer (iMac G5) with a 100-T port. When I plug it into a 100-T router my download speed drops to 0.05 Mbps. By plugging it into a 10-T switch I can increase the download speed to over 5 Mbps like the rest of the computers on the network. It appears operating at 100-T causes too many retries.
I have isolated it down to the computer (not the cabling between the computer and the router).
Do you think this is a bad transceiver IC or did something get misconfigured? I haven't seen any info on this on the Apple site.
