If you configured the adapter for full duplex, make sure that the switch connector also is configured

Check with your LAN administrator for the necessary networking software.

1000 Mbps. Instead, it connects at 100 Mbps.

Bluetooth problems

Note: Check your connection anytime and make sure that no other Bluetooth-enabled device is searching for
the device to which you want to connect. Simultaneous searching is not allowed in the Bluetooth connection.

speaker even though the Bluetooth headset/headphone is connected using a Headset profile or AV profile.
