Can you check the plugs at the end of the ethernet cable.  If 4 have wires going into the connectors then the cable is 100Mbps.  If all 8 are connected then its gigabit

[1Laburnumgrove]

nope looking at the router settings it seems all ethernets are restricted too 100mps

There should be a way to change that

@Chrisee How do you change ethernet to gigabit on sky max 👍

[Chrisee]

@1Laburnumgrove & @cookiemonsteruk the ethernet ports on the SR213 the White Wifi Max hub auto negotiate speeds there does not appear to be a switch nor should there be a need for one.

You can see the current status in the web interface on my own unit in the picture below* You will see two of the ethernet ports are conected to devices with gigabit ports in my case a Gigabit switch and a Powerline adapater but one is connected to the hub for my Hive devices which only has a 10Mb/s port. If I manually switch connections that page reflects the change.

@1Laburnumgrove do you have an ethernet switch between the hub and the PC as if that has 100Mb/s ports that will be restrict the speed the hub can supply? Another reason would be a cable where only 4 connections out of 8 were connected either because the cable was partially wired or one wire has a break.

* @1Laburnumgrove you will note I have obscured the mac addresses for the ports in my screen shot the reason why yours was rejected was probably because you hadn't done the same.

Are you sure your just not using cheap ethernet cables that came bundled with something? Usually they are only rated for 100mbps.
