I have a asrock h94 pro4 motherboard with a intel 218-v on it.

The problem i have is that i can't get my full internet speed. (50/5)

On the other laptop that i have, there is no such problem, getting my full speed both via wifi and lan, with the cable that i use for my pc, so its not a cable problem or ISP.

Latest drivers installed.

Is there anything that i'm missing?

Thank you.

Hi siralex,

Thank you for contacting Intel.

Here are some recommended settings to improve the adapter's performance:

- Reduce Interrupt Moderation Rate to Low, Minimal, or Off

- Increase the Transmit Descriptors buffer size. The default is 256. Maximum value is 2048.

- Increase the Receive Descriptors buffer size. The default is 256. Maximum value is 2048.

Please try to disable the offloading settings too.

- Offload TCP Segmentation

- TCP Checksum Offload

- UDP Checksum offload

You may refer to website below for more information:

I hope this help improve your LAN connection.
