I've had this router now for awhile and wanted to brag about it but my transfer rates still suck bad....WTF am I missing? All my shtuff is Gb cards and switch, but I still get 11Mb transfer rate? It's cat5 cable...is there some new shtuff(sry had a headache) IDK about? I'm really p o'd it took my Ubuntu Machine an Hour to update...GRAnTED, I don't turn it on that much but holy crap what am I missing?

It's odd. Sometimes it takes venting out a problem just to vent your frustration to find the dumbassed smallest thing you knew it was going to be. It would seem, after all these years...which didn't matter before a GB router...out of the 2 miles of cat5 cable laying around not doing anything, I can't replace my in use cat5 cable with cat5e cable to get the speeds in house I'm supposed to have!!!! stupid stupid stupid /kicks self duh/ If I didn't have a place to vent it out, it'd a taken longer, I just got fed up.  |

Well, I don't know what cat 5 vs. 5e means, but I do know that there are cat 5 crossover cables and cat 5 straight thru cables, and if you don't have the right one, it can slow things waaaaay down, or stop it altogether.

No, it's because you profiled the cable.

Ok, now my switch in the other room says it's 1000 connection up to it FINNALLY, however, now that I know it's a Gigabit connection,
I never realized it, buy my storage/media server only has a 10/100 card in it...will the madness ever end?
Must be profiled global warming.
