    Hey everyone,

    Can anyone with SR series laptop confirm that the controller does not support gigabit on this laptop? I know that specs on the Sony site say it's a 100MB port, but they also do so for my VGN-C190G and yet I have a Gig port. Please post the make and model of the onboard network PHY also if possible.

    Thanks in advance,
    Alex.

    It's a "Marvell Yukon 88E8040 PCI-E Fast Ethernet Controller"
    and yes it is a gigabit controller
