I've got an integrated network adapter that supports speeds up to 1000Mbps, but when I look at status It shows it only at 100Mbps...

I am also hooked into a router so does this have any effect on it?

Just in case anyone is wondering, i would expect that your router is running at 100Mbps and ethernet runs at the max speed it can and auto-selects.

And the only real need for gigabit ethernet is if you are moving around large numbers of big files from some form of SAN device that can support those speeds.

Anyone who isn't confused really doesn't understand the situation

Can you work out the code?
