Hi, I have a TPlink usb 3 adapter, it works instantly to ethernet, but looks like it has reached a limit of speed to 92mb, meanwhile my same connection but in wifi reach up to 380mb. Is there a way to increase the speed in Ethernet?

I once was getting just 100megabits on an Ethernet connection to a gigabit switch via a gigabit Ethernet port on my Mac. Turns out, my Ethernet cable was ONLY rated for 100megabits/sec. I changed my cable and I was getting gigabit speeds.
Ditto.

How do you know you are getting those speeds? Are they actual, measured transfer rates or just what the adapter is reporting?
Hi, thanks for replying. I just get phone support from my internet provider, result that the cable was not faster enough, it needed CAT 5 or CAT6 at least to support 1000Mb, so I´ll change it.
USB-C Ethernet adapter works partially, as its runs in lower speed than wifi
