I'm not entire sure about the impact of this configuration. I'm monitoring my device about instability, overheating and data corruption. I didn't notice anything until now.
After login as root just run:
#/sbin/ethtool -s eth0 speed 1000 duplex full autoneg off
To return to fast ethernet speed
# /sbin/ethtool -s eth0 speed 100 duplex full autoneg off
I didn't put this configuration in any initialization script. As soon as I'm sure about the stability of the device I'll include in some file like: /etc/rc.local
OBS: The speed doesn't change until you reboot the device. Turn on and off the Wi-Fi using the button doesn't change the speed anymore. ( Until you reboot the device... )
My list of G-CONNECT oddities right now is closed:
It's impossible create users, product comes with admin and guest account only.The Gigabit Ethernet works with gigabit speed only when the Wi-Fi is OFF, when ON (AP router mode) the speed is fast ethernet 100/10The android app is impossible download from my country.The hard drive comes formatted in FAT32. It's impossible write files larger then 4gb.
Right now I'll start a list of improvements...
- Convert the WiFi in a client of a Wireless Router ( Client Mode )
- Install Transmission bittorrent
- Investigate the USB connection (USB on-the-go)
What else ?? Leave your thoughts in the comments. Regards...
