Hi, when I found out my modem allowed speed up to 4 Gbs I purchased a Realtek 2.5Gbs adapter. When I plugged it into the motherboard it appeared to be actually running full speed, at least according to W11/Settings/Network&Internet. The light on the Ethernet switch was orange, all the others green. I found that this was proof of a higher speed. Several months later I noticed it was on 1Gbs again, like the previous adapter. I changed the speed manually in the Device Manager, but it does not register. I think I have the latest driver (from 02.02.2026). Any idea how to push it to its nominal speed, please ...? (it had already slowed down before yesterdays automatic update to a newer insider preview version.)
