Slow Ethernet connection after reboot

[sonickboom]

If you could explain thins in clear steps that would be super helpful.

I don't normally turn off my computer except when I install updates. When I do restart, my sleep always goes down to 0.5-1 MB/s, normally I get 25MB/s. To fix this i do many combinations of the following: unplug the ethernet cable, change cable and restart the computer.
It's an old computer so it could be a hardware issue but not sure.

Not sure if this is helpful:
Network: Device-1: Intel 82567LM-3 Gigabit Network vendor: Hewlett-Packard driver: e1000e
v: 3.2.6-k port: 1100 bus ID: 00:19.0 chip ID: 8086:10de
IF: enp0s25 state: up speed: 100 Mbps duplex: full mac: <filter>

Thanks for any help.

You can try shutting everything down, then restart router/modem & machine.

Thanks for the suggestion. I've done this as well. My other devices on the network are still getting good speeds when my computer slows down.

You can try:

Reload the driver:

Code: Select all

 sudo modprobe -r e1000e && sudo modprobe e1000e 

Or restart Network Manager;

Code: Select all

 sudo service network-manager restart

Thanks so much, I know it's late but the problem just happened now and resting the driver with the code provided worked! You've save me so much time.
