Wired Network Running Slow Should Be Gigabit

hey .. i have a home network set up mostly so I can feed videos to my TV.. but also to share files.

I have android boxes at the tvs and a win7 and win10 computer...

the win10 computer has onboard gigabit.. the win7 has a card with gigabit.. the boxes might run at 100mbit..

they all go to one place where i have a 1gigabit switch.. that switch then runs to the room with the win10 computer where I have another gigabit switch which hooks to the internet and the computer and a small nas..

only the win10 computer is running at gigabit speeds to the nas.. the win7 in the other room is not getting gigabit speeds but I think it might get 12MBYTE ps so i am not sure its running at 100mbit speed..

would there be a problem because I am using 2 switches?

where all the rooms connect at the first switch I am only seeing the win10 room showing 100MByte connection.. its a netgear 8port .. i have tried to change ports and its always the same room getting a better connection .. not the port having a problem..

is there a way I can see network errors on the win7 computer to see if i am dropping an amazing amount of packets? i never get into the 15MB + speed in that room on read or write..

I did all the wiring so maybe a cable or a wall jack isn't perfectly crimped idk

any ideas would be helpful..

certain keys on my keyboard dont work when "cold"

Hi guys, i have a Lenovo Y520-15IKBN (80WK) and certain keys on the keyboard don't work (e,g,h,8,9,Fn...) but only when the weather is cold. for example in the winter it used to work after certain amount of time when i first boot the laptop and stops working when i stop using it for a while, but now that the weather is hot it works just fine except for the first couple of minutes or when its colder. of course i do realise that it has nothing to do with the outside weather but with the temperature of the computer itself. can someone explain to me why this is happening and how it should be fixed as i cannot take it to the tech service until july even though it's still under warranty because i need it for school. ps: an external keyboard works fine.

Old PC with a Foxconn n15235 motherboard needs drivers! Help!!

So my Pc corrupted and I had to fresh install windows on it, but now its missing 3 drivers and one of them is for the Ethernet controller! I've tried searching everywhere for the windows 7 drivers but all I seem to find are some dodgey programs saying they will install it for me. Problem is without the ethernet driver I can't bloody connect to the internet. I've been using a USB to try get some drivers on there, but they just end up being useless programmes . I'm also a bit of a noob at these things, I don't understand where to find the names of things in my PC, I've opened it up but I don't understand whats significant and what isnt. If someone has the drivers and can teach me how to install them I'd be very appreciative! Submitted April 29, 2018 at 02:47PM by darrilsteady https://ift.tt/2r76xMZ
