Hello everyone,
I've been using my Mikrotik HEX s for a while now and I'm very happy with it, but I don't know where to turn to get my gigabit network working. I am starting to lose my mind.
Premise: I have all the hardware in my network in Gigabit (everything is wired with category 7 and 7a cables that should easily be able to handle a speed of 10Gbps). In this case that I'm describing, my HEX S is connected directly to my Windows 11 desktop with one of these cables (and not even that long). My PC's network adapter is a Realtek Gaming 2.5GbE Family Controller, with speeds of up to 2.5 Gbps.
The problem is that I can't get above 100Mbps on any of my devices. I also have an Ubuntu 22.04 computer connected directly to the HEX s (although there is a Goalake POE308G switch in between, but still connected to the 1000Gbps uplink port). It too reports 100Mbps as speed. In fact, I have the orange LED flashing on all my devices.
Autonegotiation is currently active on both the router and my devices. However, if I remove the options below 100Mbps on the HEX s (leaving only 1000 half and full upwards) it simply will not connect. On the other hand, if I force the card speed to 2.5Gbps and disable autonegotiation on the router by setting the speed to 1Gbps, the speed shown on Windows changes to 10Mbps!
Here's the output of /interface ethernet print detail
The Windows PC we're talking about is connected to ether2. I'm using ether1 as WAN, connected to a Ubiquiti LiteBeam 5AC Gen2 LBE-5AC-GEN2 (not relevant in this case).
Do you have any ideas? I don't know what to do anymore
