Q70R Ethernet Port Specification

[asterix007]

When I connect a CAT6 cable, between my Samsung TV (Q70R 82 inch) and the ethernet switch, I am able to get a 100Mbps link. When I replace the TV with a laptop, I get a sold 1Gbps link which verifies my wiring.

Can the Ethernet port on the Samsung Q70R support 1Gbps connection?

I do not see this anywhere in the documentation. Please respond back.

In this day and age, I find this bizarre as to why would Samsung save a 2$ (or so) on a 3000$ TV for a slower rated ethernet port..

It's really weird. Same on my 65 inch Q900R 8k TV - only 100 Mbps. 

Have you tried with an USB 1Gbps ethernet dongle? I will try this coming week and see.
