Can't Enable Gigabit Speeds

[outofstep]

Hi. I just set up my new computer. I have an Asus A8V motherboard with the onboard Yukon Gigabit NIC. Internet is working and everything but when I go to configuration I don't have an option for 1000MBs. The max option is 100MB full duplex. I have the latest drivers and everything. Is there a reason why I'm not having that option? Will it even make a difference with a cable internet connection? Thanks in advance.

no it wont make any difference unless you have gigabit internet, and if you did have that, please share!

Yes, please share with us if you have a gigabit internet connection, we WILL all come over for a LAN party if you do....

Back to the topic: If you only have a 100Bit connecion, evan if you were to enable the gigabit connection, you would not see a difference.

Nope. Usage of OC3 connections is when you can enable 1000MBPS

On the other hand, I think you cannot enable it because of your connection.
