NR5103E 2.5gb LAN?

[Monkeymonkey]

Hello,

Can anyone confirm if the zyxel NR5103E has 2.5Gb LAN ports on the back of the device please?

I have my NR5103E connected to a 2.5gb switch with cat 7 cables and then 2.5gb ethernet on my pc. But the speed reported on the Web Gui and the app for the zyxel hub is 1000MB/Full.

If anyone can offer advice/guidance on whether the hub does have 2.5gb and if there is a setting to enable it, that would be appreciated.

Thank you

The spec for NR5103V2 states 2 x 2.5Gb lan ports but zyxel are too lazy to publish any details about V1.

V2 has slower ethernet ports than the original router (1GbE), and 2 less antenna sockets, other than that the routers are the same spec wise according to this table taken from the Zyxel website.

The original NR5103E does indeed have 2.5 GbE ports.

There's a huge thread about the NR5103E over on ISPReview.

Thanks for the reply

I thought it did have 2.5gb ethernet.

I must have done something wrong with my setup then, I will try some different cables on a shorter distance direct to my pc to see if it works at 2.5gb.

Maybe I damaged a cable.

Thank you
