[Winpcap-users] rate limitation

[MARMONIER Cédric]

If I set my Ethernet Card in 1Gb mode, there is always the problem but if I
configure my Ethernet Card in 100Mb/Full-Duplex, there is no problem (I send
an 100Mb flow): it is very strange.
When I am in 1Gb mmode, I can't choose the duplex mode.
=> My Ethernet Card is Realtek RTL8168C : I updated the driver with the last
version

I agree it is likely a hardware problem.  It may be an incompatibility
between the NIC and switch's ability to 'auto detect' the Link Speed and
Duplex.  You can try to 'hard set' the Link speed to 1Gb and Duplex to Half
and then Duplex to Full and see if this changes your results.

Good Luck.
