Why speed of internet connection is at 10mbps and not 100

[sam21]

Once again my brother's computer is having problems,it's internet speed is only at 10mpbs and not 100,it's causing file sharing through AIM to be incredibly slow,even if the other computer is on the same network

Doesn anybody know how to fix this problem????

reinstalled the driver for the NIC and now internet access is gone,nothin'

and even though I can't connect to the internet,the other computer I'm using to type this,keeps getting a Windows error message saying "there is a IP address conflict" and it stops when I unplug the cable(brother's comp's)from the router

try re registering ur IP address with the router company... dunno if that helps though..

let me know how everything turns out.

[sam21]

I'm not sure how to do that...

lol,well this problem is solved.Turnsout the NIC that it had only supported 10mbps,so that's replaced and it's fixed.Thanks for the help though Psychodic_Greak!
