though highly unlikely, try switching the port on the router/modem, maybe theres a port or two that isn't Giga-enabled (print server port or something?)

I
1- Installed the latest drivers from ASUS support site
2- Changed the ports on my router
3- Changed the speed to Auto-negotiate
nothing happened.....
and I don't have a wireless connection on my htpc...... Here is the screen shot of my device manager, it does say GBE controller.......
