So I believe the issue to be the fact my RTL8168 is limited to 100mbs but I have no idea how to change it. I searched around on google and couldn’t find anything helpful. As stated in the title I can about 200mbs on windows but on 70mbs on Manjaro.
Thanks

What’s the output of ethtool enp3s0?

[rambo]

@pobrn

ethtool enp3s0

the command isnt be recognized dont know what im typing wrong? its probably something stupid
[ranvir@ranvir-pc ~]$ ethtool enp3s0
bash: ethtool: command not found

[pobrn]

In that case please install the ethtool package first.

[scachemaille]

you can try to change the settings of your wired network (inside plasma) for link negotiation to “automatic” to see if it will detect and change to the actual 1000mbps (if your router port is a 1000mbps etc).
I don’t really understand the difference between “ignore” and “automatic”.

[megavolt]

Could you check again with a plugged-in cable?

Using the driver r8169 shows me:

Advertised link modes:  10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full
                        100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full
                        1000baseT/Full

and

Link partner advertised link modes:  10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full
                                     100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full

So fully understandable that my card can do 1000Mbit/s but my Router doesn’t offer it.

Maybe the issue here is that you use TP and the driver only offers this one… while i use MII.

Supported ports: [ TP	 MII ]
[...]
Port: MII

PS: I can also install r8168 (through mhwd aka Manjaro Settings),but r8169 works perfectly for me…

Btw… you can set the speed manually with:

sudo ethtool -s  enp3s0 speed 1000 duplex full

for example.

Thanks that did the trick
