Slow ethernet in linux

[Sailing_Nut]

Here is the output of ifconfig:

[code}

And here is my interfaces file

Code:

# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

As for the DHCP server settings, I'm not really sure what you are looking for. The DHCP server is a router supplied to me by my internet provider. If there are specific settings you are looking for to help troubleshoot, let me know and I can check them on the router.

And thank YOU for supporting me! :-)
