![]() ![]() Like if you kink an ethernet cable, it's cat-rating is in the toilet. Basically these have reduced distances and tolerances. Or is 5e sufficient and thus the installation done properly?Ĭat 5e = Cat6, Cat6a = Cat7. I am wondering If I should contact them and tell them to install Cat 6 cables. The person who installed the fiber did this. I noted that the ethernet cables they used to connect things are Cat 5e instead of Cat 6. The only setting that makes the largest difference is turning the Nagle Algorithm off (sometimes called the leatrix fix by MMORPG players) and that favors latency and bandwidth. If you're not playing FPS or MMORPG games that are latency sensitive, then favor bandwidth. There is one setting that Mass Effect didn't like and that was the Chimney offload/ECN, but I don't remember what those had to be set to to make Mass Effect 3 connect. Turn on checksums and LSO, increase buffer sizes, turn off nagle. If you want to maximize the bandwidth, you have to consider your other devices. MTU should be 9000 if ALL your devices including the modem support it, otherwise leave at 1500. If you favor bandwidth, turn on everything and increase the size of most numbers other than MTU size. If you favor latency, turn off or reduce the size of most numbers other than MTU size. In general, you should have certain settings turned on or off depending on if you want to favor latency or bandwidth. But you might find you go from 2ms latency to 20ms latency in games. ![]() TCP Optimizer will let you futz with the settings in favor of bandwidth. This is because you likely installed the "killer" drivers which are optimized for latency, not bandwidth. * Priority & Vlan - Priority & Vlan enabled * MAx NUM of RSS Queues - 4 queues ( Processor i7 8750h) Set Up duplexing on E2500 Killer gigabit ethernet switch for 1.0 GBPS confirmed it was not windows firewall, or my antivirust firewall as the root cause of the bottleneck (I disabled both and got the same download speeds of about 300-400mbps and upload speeds of 800+ mbps) Get 800+ mbps when booted into safe mode with networking Be able to get close to the same speeds after connecting ISP provided modem/router to a proper router with an IDPS (intrusion detection prevention system) Identify what the bottleneck is I suspect it is something in Windows 10 or driver related I uninstalled Killer command center, even tried disabling IPV6 within the modem/router provided to me by the ISP. The problem is that even after setting up Duplexing in the device drivers to 1.0 Gbps my internet download speeds are half of what my uploads are, which is telling me there is some sort of bottlneck. So I have recently got fiber internet 1 Gigabit. ![]()
