    Broadcom netlink gigabit ethernet. Not sure what speed its capable of handling, but this isnt a particularly fast connection anyway, tops out at 10 mbps down usually.

    Greg, i'm connected to the router via a ethernet cable. Why would i get a faster speed via wireless compared to ethernet?
    My point isn't to debate with you which should be faster, only how the connection manager assigns each connection priority.

    If you want a certain connection to take first priority then follow the steps provided to assign it a lower metric value in the Connection Properties.
