    Hi

    I have the eir F200 modem and the 300 mb fibre to the home package. 
    I have eir TV ethernet cable hooked into Lan port 4 and my laptop ethernet cable in Lan port 3.
    When I go to the maintain tab on my router - Lan Port 4 (eir tv) shows as having a rate of [font=GTWalsheimRegular, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]1000M / Full. However Lan port 3 shows as having a rate of [/font][font=GTWalsheimRegular, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]100M / Full[/font]


    [font=GTWalsheimRegular, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Even if I unplug eir tv from Lan port 4 and disabled wireless - Lan port 3 only transmits 100mb.[/font]
    [font=GTWalsheimRegular, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]I even tried the ethernet cable from the eir tv box and it never transmits more than 100mb over any Lan port to my laptop.[/font]


    [font=GTWalsheimRegular, "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]I understand that the router tries to divide bandwidth for all connected and wireless device. But is there any way that I can tell the router to always transmit at 1000mbs for all ethernet ports?[/font]

    Your laptop or connecting lan cable  may only support 100M. Check the spec of your laptop.
