ESXi 5 and Gb Network

$

Folks,

 

I need a sanity check on my ESXi implementation on my home network.  I'm running ESXi 5 on a single box with a single NIC (Intel Pro/1000 GT) connecting to a Billion 7800N Router. The setup is fairly lo-fi, which is fine, but one thing that is annoying me is the fact that the physical newtork adapter on the host is showing up as 100Mbps.

 

The VMs on this host are all showing, via the network control panel, that they are connected at 1.0Gbps. I'm not sure which to believe. That said, the networking doesn't seem to be "Gb fast". The connection speed on the host NIC is set to auto-negotiate rather than 1000Mb as I'm a bit concerned about changing this and not being able to get back in. It is showing as Configured Speed, Duplex: Auto negotiate, and Actual Speed, Duplex: 100Mb, Full Duplex.

 

Anyhow, does anyone have any advice? Thanks in advance.

 

HP
