SR203 Ethernet Ports are very slow

I have a 300M.Bts account, I'm getting about 250M.Bts on WiFi but less than 40M.Bts from all four yellow ethernet ports, tried resetting the box but still the same.

To avoid confusion, the relevant units are Mbps (megabits per second)

 

Sometimes this is written as Mbs, Mb/s or Mbit/s

How to read your Sky Hub statistics

 

Also do you have sky Q, and if so is it connected by Ethernet on a port!

@TrevCol So you know straight up, not wearing this all four yellow ports, but only will do if you are on a G.fast fttc circuit and you have a SR204 hub, not a SR203....

If you've used the same cable in all four ports, then the cable is obviously faulty.  (It does happen).  Also be aware, if it is an old cable, such as Cat 5 instead of 5e, then only four wires will be connected.  To get 1000 Mb/s it needs all 8 wires connected and working.

 

I would also try a full power cycle of the hub, as it maybe that the auto-negotiation has crashed.

@TrevCol do you have Sky Q boxes 9f so how.are they networked? There have been reports of slowing down of ethernet ports in some vonfigurations.
