I have a Airport Extreme Router which I believe is capable of Gigabit Ethernet speed. I confirmed this is by clicking on the Airport Utility in the Utilities Folder which indicated that it found an Airport Extreme with 802.11n (Gigabit Ethernet).
I also have an iMac (Intel) with a Marvel Yukon Gigabit Adapter 88E8055 Singleport Copper SA. This information was obtained from 'About this Mac' and clicking on 'More Info' and then Ethernet Cards. The iMac is hard wired to my Airport Extreme with Cat5E cable
I also have a 2TB NetGear RND2120 ReadyNAS Duo which again is connected directly to my Airport Extreme with Cat5E cable.
When I run the Network Utility and select the Ethernet option it tells me that my link speed is 100Mbit/s.
Also if I open Preferences and select Network and then the Advanced option and the the Ethernet Tab it confirms that my speed is only 100baseTX. If I configure manually and then set the speed to 1000baseT it gives the Status as Cable Unplugged together with the following message 'Either the cable for Ethernet is not plugged in or the device at the other end is not responding'
My question is, how can I get Gigabit Ethernet on my setup?
Cheers
