Is Mybook Live Gigabit

I get really slow speeds on my mybook live 2tb. I have read on the product spec sheet it supports gigabit ethernet connections. Now i have plugged it into my gigabit router and im not getting a gigabit connection only a standard one. Is there any reason for this. cheers

Hello,

Take a look at this link. Hope it helps

When transferring large files to or from a Personal Cloud drive, performance may be slower than expected

“Not getting a gigabit connections only a standard one”.

I am afraid you will have to provide more details than that. Start by making sure your router is gig. Also make sure MBL connects with gig, check the LEDs in the back and compare colors, all in manual.

And some fun reading…
