Verizon does not have ipv6 in our area yet, so that`s why none of my PC`s can connect to the net with ipv6, but that doesn`t matter, there`s no speed gain anyway.
But anyway, nothing I tried allowed me to work with the ip address on this pc so I`m reimaging it.
Post results when done.
Thanks everyone for your input.
Hi,
Okay I missed the Verizon bit
I did notice the poor internet speed at 100.0 mbps though when most of us show 1.0 gbps
100 Mbps is limited by my switches and most of these pc`s in the house are old, only my Sabertooth can do 1 Gbps, but it`s connected to a switch that can`t do 1 Gbps, so It`s not worth the effort. After a reimage on that particular PC I can do whatever I want to the ip address so all is well
100 Mbps is more then enough. You`d have to get 1000 Mbps in order to have a 1 Gbps network, does anyone out there have that ?????????????????????

This is what I get from Verizon, so having a 100 Mbps network is fine.

Do you see the 57 download.
My download is half of the 7.
That is before peek times set in !
I just changed all the ports on my Verizon Fios Quantum Gateway to 1000 Mbps, they were all at 100 Mbps by default.
Now I either have to run a Cat5e cable directly to the computer from the router, or buy a new Linksys 1000 Gigabit switch to have a 1000 Gbps network.
My current switch up here only has 100 Mbps ports, it`s quite a few years old, but it was free
Again, it would be a waste of time and done out of sheer boredom, as a 100 Mbps network is fine :)
But like I always say, if you got it, use it
