[QUOTE="tonyvwie, post: 679077, member: 31181"] I have a problem with my gigabit ethernet connection. To transfer large files to my Time Capsule (firmware 7.3.1) and external hard drive I've connected my MacBook (with giga ethernet port) to my TC with a cat 6 ethernet cable. Unfortunately the transferrate won't get higher than about 12 Mb/sec, this should be about 100 Mb/sec (about 1000 Mbit/sec). With a cat 5e cable it wouldn't work either. The wired connection with my LaCie external disk (supports gigabit ethernet) isn't faster either. I've tried some changes in system preferences > network > ethernet but adjusting the speed won't work. what's wrong? [/QUOTE]
