Good Evening,

I'm having an issue with my Broadcom NIC setting 1 port as 100baseTX and the primary is active and correct at 1000baseT. I currently have them setup in a LACP Lagg setup, my router is setup for LACP on ports 1 & 2, showing port 1 at 1Gbps and port 2 at 100Mbps. Any help is greatly appreciated!!

Check the ports and cables. Fallback to 100baseTX is a classic symptom of a bad connection, as 10/100 only use two of the four pairs, while 1000 requires all four pairs.

New cable fixed it, thanks for the suggestion. Would have never thought of doing that. :)
