Hmmm, for some weeks now I had problems with #network - on every #distro, every #DE. With my inbuilt 2.5 Gig #Realtek NIC the connection would just drop. On 2.5 Gig #Intel I226-V the ping response times would spike to 100-200 ms, which made it unusable (and in# Plasma caused the DE to become unresponsive).
Switched to old 1 Gig Intel 82571, and it would set itself to 100 Mbps. I changed cable from Cat 5e UTP to Cat 6 FTP and it jumped to 1 Gig.
Was the shitty cable the problem all along...?
