Vu+ Newbie
it doesn´t connect to gigabit speed. Is a driver isuue?, configuration vu+?

My other devices connect in same switch a gigabit speed...

In specifications say's gigabit ethernet port...

I got gigabit switch with different indication via LED and VU+ Solo² is indicated as a gigabit connection.
However, transmission speed from VU+ to PC is approx 20MBps (5400 rpm hdd) and around 12MBps in the opposite direction.
It is significant improvement comparing to old enigma 2 boxes.
 
my switch have too different led for gigabit connection. My two laptop connect to gigabit but vu+ connect 100mb. Test connectivy indicates that going in 100mb...
I'm going to upgrade with new drivers to test.

If you telnet to your solo2 ,and run his command:
Code: 
ethtool eth0
You can see supported modes and actual mode,this is what my solo1 (which "only" has 100mbit) looks like:
Supported ports: [ TP MII ]
Supported link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full
Supports auto-negotiation: Yes
Advertised link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full
Advertised auto-negotiation: Yes
Speed: 100Mb/s
Duplex: Full
Port: MII
PHYAD: 1
Transceiver: internal
Auto-negotiation: on
Link detected: yes

Not meant as a solution to your problem, but source for more information.
The obvious next step is to try another ethernet cable and different port in switch.
 
I've get infos about ethernet port of my Solo2:

Code: 
root@vusolo2:~# ethtool eth0
Settings for eth0:
        Supported ports: [ TP MII ]
        Supported link modes:  10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full
                                100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full
                                1000baseT/Half 1000baseT/Full
        Supports auto-negotiation: Yes
        Advertised link modes:  10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full
                                100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full
                                1000baseT/Full

I use wireless to connect the box to Internet ;)
Gigabit connections require gigabit router/switch and a gigabit certified cable (CAT 5E or CAT6) otherwise 100Mbit connection is established.
