Hopefully someone here can help me out.
I currently have the following setup:
Switch 3Com (5-port 100/1000mbps) (basement)
SageTV Server (1Gb)
Ubuntu Server (100Mb)
Switch 3Com (8-port 100/1000mbps) (main floor)
HDHomeRun (100Mb)
Linksys Router (100Mb)
SageTV HD Extender (100Mb)
Basement Switch (1Gb)
Upstairs Switch (1Gb)
Switch trendnet (5-port 100/1000mbps) (upstairs)
Printer HP2600n (100Mb)
Printer HP3310 (100Mb)
Work Computer (1Gb)
So, the servers are connected to the basement switch, which is connected to the main floor switch, which is connected to the upstairs switch.
All of the computers that have gigabit show that there are connected to the switch at gigabit speed, but when I transfer files from the sagetv server in the basement to the Work computer, the transfer speed maxes out at 100mbit (showing ~8% network utilization of the 1Gb connection in Windows). Is there something about when having a mixed network with 100mbit and 1gbit that all transfers are locked to 100mbit max speed?
Anyone have this problem, or experiencing the same issue?
