2.5gbe Nic is only giving me 1gbe speed

[laf]

Hi, new to unraid and I am in my trial. Really want to move forward, but been stuck on this nic issue and was hoping to get some help. Also, sorry if this isn't really unraid's fault and just my own inability.

I bought the following TPLINK nic from Amazon - but I am getting the following, where the speed seems set to 1gbe:

Any advice on how to go about addressing this?

To get the obvious out of the way, is the cable plugged into a 2.5GBs switch? or router with 2.5GBs port?

 

Also, next time upload the zip file.  Don't separate the files out.  Makes it a PITA for everyone

Yes, its attached to a 2.5 switch. My client I'm accessing the gui from is 1GB, but didn't that would matter. Got it on the zip upload, not sure how that happened, as I thought I just uploaded the single file.

Your switch does not support 2,5G (at least it does not offer it). If it really is a 2,5g type, check its settings. Or, maybe,  only certain ports of the switch can do 2,5? check the manual and use the correct one.

Thanks Mam59. Its a managed switch and for some reason the port was set to 1gb...duh on my part. Thanks for taking the time to take a look! Works fine now
