When I plug an ethernet cable into my router I get slower speeds than over wifi. I did some searching and found that I may need to change my ethernet type to fast ethernet but when I type 192.168.0.1 into my browser and login with admin and my wifi password, the menu looks different than what I've seen online. That's what my menu looks like and I also changed the adapter setting to 1.0Gbps yet the link speed is still showing 100mbps. I'm using a CAT5e/CAT6 cable.

Posted by a Superuser, not a Sky employee. Find out more@Dorian14 it looks like you have the new white Sky hub that usually comes as part of the Wifi Max package which has a very different control set up. It would ve very unusual to have to switch the hub's erhernet ports from the default Gigabit setting to Fast Ethernet as the hub autonegotiates the rate with the device.
Your issue could be that the devicechas ports limited to 100Mb/s which isnt uncommon on video streaming boxes like Sky's own Stream pucks because in practice they can only ever use under 50Mb/s. If its a PC check the network set up to see if the port is configured correctly.
