i dont mind buying another NIC to try it out IF there is a good chance of it fixing the problem  |
Leave it in autonegotiate and it should attempt to connect the fastest it can, which from the PC to the router or modem should be 100M, its only 1,2 or 10M from the modem back to NTL.
BTW half duplex only allows data one way at a time, be it transmit or receive, full duplex allows both simulateously [supposedly], so the figures you get may be slightly higher but try streaming up and down at same time to check results.
