Sounds like you have a bad cable somewhere!
See if a 10/100 switch in mix
May need to turn off auto negotiation and set both ends to 100/1000
🤔 check if it's auto negotiate problem on driver side
If the link speed is at 100mbps then it's most likely a faulty cable
As you were hitting nearly 900Mbps it maybe a glich on your end or the ISP, how is the speed also always run the speed on multiple devices.
Had this happen to me 3 weeks ago. I examined the cable and found a very small kink in it. Changed to a different cable and it was back to 700 Mbps. Could only get 97 Mbps with the damaged cable.
