Hey, I just got glass fiber internet.

When I connect my laptop with a Lan cable directly to the router I have very fast internet. If I connect my laptop to the RJ45 it seems like its slowed down. It’s still fast, but not as fast as when directly connected to the router.

Any ideas how I can get faster speed through my RJ45’s if I connect my laptop to the RJ45 port?

The problem is I can’t install new ports everywhere in every room and my router is basically in a room where my laundry is. So I won’t be gaming in there, but for now I am… because of how fast it is lol.

Any ideas? No I won’t use WiFi for gaming though lol.

    The speed that you get through your rj45’s depends on the quality of the cable used, both ‘in the wall’ and from the socket to your device. For 1Gb/sec they need to be cat 5e or better.
