Hello,

I'm here to find a solution to my problem, which is that when I go into "Speed & Duplex," the maximum I can get is 100Mbps (while I've seen several screen shots showing that others with the same socket as mine can reach up to 1Gbps). I can't find a solution online. I just changed my cable in case the problem was with it, but no…

If anyone has a solution, I’m all ears.

Configuration: Windows / Chrome 99.0.4844.74

I tried to download the new drivers but without success (maybe they weren't right). If you have a link to give me, I'm open to it.

All I can give you is this:

but there are specialists in drivers here who can give you more detailed information.

I went to this site, no drivers to change, then I went to the MSI website (which is the manufacturer of my motherboard) and I took the LAN driver for the ethernet system, I still can't change...

Change your card then,
for example with a gigabit/usb3.0 adapter
Anyway, it can always be useful, on this machine or another, it's essential for many ultrabooks by the way.

Maybe I should give it a try.

But the problem is that I saw several people who could go to 1 GB, so :/

1 Go doesn't mean anything at this level, it's a volume, not a speed.
And even if it were 1 Go/s, thus speed, it doesn't concern many people because that represents 8 Gbit/s...

Yes, I meant Gbits/s.

Hi Extr0,

I have 2 solutions to propose
> the 1st one, a driver for the KillerE2200. (hoping it works)
https://fichiers.touslesdrivers.com/64552/KillerDrivers_2.2.3262_x64.exe

> The 2nd one as a last resort (you can try it directly if you want) > install a driver from another brand. "Qualcomm Atheros" this one is ok from win7 to win8.1. I don't know if it will work with win10
https://fichiers.touslesdrivers.com/38633/AR813x_AR815x_AR816x_v2.1.0.21_WHQL.zip
Extract it to a folder.
Then go to your Device Manager, right-click on your network card, then Update driver
Click on Browse my computer for drivers...
Then click on Browse... Go to the folder where you extracted it and then to the Common_Dri folder

There you go, I hope it works
Keep us posted ;)

Hello H0enheim,

Following your message, I did what you asked me to do, but there's no result. For the first one, I think I already had this driver, and for the second one, it doesn't prompt me for it, but tells me directly that all the best drivers are installed. But thanks for helping me anyway ^^.

But you're welcome; we're here to find solutions ;)

I heard there’s a Killer Network Manager / Killer service installed? Do you see it anywhere?
Generally, we get rid of that kind of software suite that messes up the bandwidth and limits our speeds & takes resources... by giving priority to each software in Windows.

Anyway, you can try to go into the software to disable throttling and see what happens.
If after a reboot nothing has changed when you run a speed test... disable the services related to Killer.
I don’t know if there’s a line for that in the properties tab of the network card (like in the image of your first post) if you find it, disable it.

There’s also the service in Windows (services.msc) search for Killer services double click Stop the service if it’s running, in startup type set it to Disabled. Apply then OK and restart.
Run a SpeedTest...
And if at the very end; if there's still NOTHING...

(I read this on another site from someone who had the same problem as you) but although it’s not related; he ended up with 1gbps after ^^

Go into the BIOS when starting the PC (Delete key or F1 or other depending on your motherboard)
Then Settings/Advanced/Integrated Devices
Enable LAN ROM option & Network Stack

There you go, good luck ;)

Hello again ^^,

So I've tried all the solutions you mentioned in your message again, but still nothing :/ (it seems I'm not allowed to have a very high speed) so unless you miraculously find a solution one day, I think I'm going to wait and try brupala's suggestion because I really believe the problem comes from my motherboard :/.

But thank you anyway!

But yes, you are entitled to the 1gbps, come on ^^; You just have bad luck like most people with this network card!

There's not really a miracle solution. Unfortunately, the Killer E2200 is really terrible because of its Killer Network Manager software.

If I were you....and while waiting for the Adapter
I would go into that damn program called the Killer Network Manager; and in the network settings, I would set everything to 1000mbps & or I would test by unchecking "Enable bandwidth control" for all programs one by one.
