Hello!
Recently I bought a network adapter with intel i226 chipset. It is a 2.5 Gbit card. I plugged it in my proxmox machine (HP 600 g3 MT) in one of the pcie ports. Unfortunatelly proxmox can't negotiate 2.5 Gbit speed (my router is 2.5 Gbit capable - it's totolink x5000r running 23.05.rc2 openwrt; cat7 lan cable ).
How can I enable 2.5 Gbit speed in proxmox? Network card works at 1Gbit with no issues. What am I doing wrong?
When I try to force 2.5Gbit speed via ethtool my network adapter disconnects and I have to reboot my server. I also tried changing lan cables and different router ports with no luck.
