I have tried different cables all is eighter cat5e or cat6 but 100Mbps is always showing.
The switches is between 1Gbps to 10Gbps
I have an rt-ac3200 and have been resetting to factory settings.

Firmware is Merlin 384.6 as i guess this is the latest

I have ubiquiti switches as shown here plus an 3Com Baseline switch wich has 1Gbps and 10Gbps on all ports. If i then plug the cables to another clients it shows 1Gbps.
I have also reflashed to stock asus firmware as you can see in image posted with no change.
From ISP i have an 500Mbps internet line, but if i can not get more then 100 you see my dilemma?

My guess would be that for some reason the auto-negotiation is failing. As there's nothing you can change on the Asus I'd suggest you see what you can do on the switch.

Go to the relevant port configuration on the switch and check that Link Negotiation is set to Auto. Assuming it is, try changing it to Manual, Full Duplex and 1000 Mbps. See if that forces a change on the Asus.

EDIT: Don't forget to set it back to Auto after your testing. ;)

I believe there is a very old post by RMerlin that directed someone to the Broadcom 'et' utility used by the firmware
e.g. the current state of my router WAN/LAN ports
Code:
et port_status all

Port    Link    Speed(Mbps)    Duplex
----    ----    -----------    ------
   0      Up            100      Full
   1      Up           1000      Full
   2      Up           1000      Full
   3    Down
   4      Up           1000      Full


et --help

usage: et [ [ -a | -i ] interface ] and one of:

    up
    down
    loop <0 or 1>
    dump
    clear_dump
    msglevel <bitvec> (error=1, trace=2, prhdr=4, prpkt=8)
    promisc <0 or 1>
    qos <0 or 1>
    speed <auto, 10half, 10full, 100half, 100full, 1000full>
    port_status <0, 1, 2, 3, 4, all>
    sw_mctbl [<port <port#>] | [vid <vid#>]
    phyrd [<phyaddr>] <reg>
    phywr [<phyaddr>] <reg> <val>
    robord <page> <reg> [length] (length can be 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 bytes. Default length is 2 bytes)
    robowr <page> <reg> <val> [length] (length can be 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 bytes. Default length is 2 bytes)
    switch_mode <phy> <mode> (mode normal=0, auto=1, manual=2, both=3)
    pktc <0 or 1>
    pktcbnd <val>

but I think you need to get the syntax 'right' by using the esoteric 'robowr' command (Page+Offset regiter write) rather than the obvious 'speed' directive, so you have probably already tried 'robocfg' on the WAN interface?

Did not change a thing, only that i was loosing access to the router/accesspoint.
Did place asusrouter script in /asusware/scripts with this
Code:
#!/bin/sh

i=0
while [ $i -le 20 ]; do
      success_start_service=`nvram get success_start_service`
      if [ "$success_start_service" == "1" ]; then
              break
      fi
      i=$(($i+1))
      echo "autorun APP: wait $i seconds...";
      sleep 1
done

robocfg port 1 media 1000FD

Still the same 100mbps

Remebering when it was happening a few month ago i lost access to the router and replaced it with another. I remember it was showing a red light then do not know wich of them. But i turned it on and forgot about it as i was going to reset to factory settings anyway
