- Right-click the local area connection that corresponds to the network adapter that you want to modify, and then click Properties.
- Click the General tab, and then click Configure.
- On the Property list, click the Advanced tab, and then click NetworkMedia .
- In the Value box, click the speed that you want to use.
- Click the Full Duplex option, and then click OK.
