Which file and where can I download the latest CE to try on my HK1 box to see if the 1000gb LAN works?
Try the latest nightly build.
try the nightly 20221006 CE19
now I got eth0
but getting very slow results

Sorry, but must be. Buy cheap, buy twice…
I have discovered over time that this is a true lesson!
I had same problem, verry slow connection at 1Gb, but also errors und disconnects.
But new development version works as expected, fast and no instability:
On X96_x4 HW-rev 1.3
There are three 1Gb switches and long LAN cables in between.
tested nightly CE19 , kernel 4.9
you are working on kernel 5.4
Looks like you are testing against your gateway/router, which may have limited CPU performance, or isn’t connected via Gbit to internal switch… Maybe retry against other device IP, e.g. PC.
my router base openwrt x86
the other machines in the network getting 1Gb agenst this router
any observations on “ethtool eth0”?
Maybe run mii-diag on WRT to monitor the link status…
But I think this is needed on CE device side. Maybe MII training failed on your HW
Yes, but I had same problems before with kernel 4.9, as you.
But I tested it with 4.9? and it was working, so what changed?
not sure.
you tested on nightly CE-20
there is a difference between nightly CE-19 and CE-20?
No, it’s same kernel.
Maybe it’s better to try out Amlogic-ne:
On both s904x4 and both kernels my speed seems fine with live TV and iperf but there are dropped packets in ifconfig The iperf scores are higher than my 1000M hub.

not sure where something got wrong.
I installed again the nightly image 20221006 for CE-19
the result now are excellent

iperf Done.
I will keep monitor it . what causes to speed drop
Thanks Everyone!

When you don’t define your interface it’s not sure what iperf take for the test. So if also WLAN is connected it’s possible this is used.
You can test it by adding the device name with --bind-dev eth0 as example.

Been on a road trip for about 3 weeks, just got back yesterday.
First thing I did was to try the new NE version of CoreELEC, it is working very well on my HK1 box.
Does this solve the issue of a different ethernet adapter that is only providing fast ethernet speeds.
I just try the CoreELEC-Amlogic-ne.arm-20.0-Nexus_nightly_20221007-Generic on my HK1 RBOX X4 4gb/32GB 1000MB Lan with one of the JLxxx chip and glad to say the LAN is now working. Great job to the CE team.
But there is a bug with the audio. I play a movie with Dolby Atmos and it works fine but when I stop the movie, the audio will stop working and it still show Dolby Atmos on my receiver. The UI clicking sound is not working and when I play Youtube video, there is no audio. Seems like CE is locked at Dolby Atmos sound. Only a reboot of CE will bring back the audio.
I also tried it with the CoreELEC-Amlogic-ng.arm-19.5-Matrix_nightly_20221006-Generic and it shows the LAN is active but there is no internet connection. I can still connect to the box via SSH but everytime I try to transfer file(even the small remote.conf files) also failed. The LAN seems to be active but the connection is very bad.
