In my Toshiba E329786 USB 3.0 port, Ubuntu speeds are slower, like 3MBPS - 5MBPS, than in a different PC running Windows 7, like 100MBPS - 120MBPS.

How can I increase the speeds in Ubuntu??

    You don't seem to have a USB 3.0 port on your computer, or it is falsely recognized as USB 2.0 port.

  • Yes, there is no USB 3.0 port in my computer. But the PC that is running windows 7 is similar like mine.

  • Does your Windows 7 computer have USB 3.0?

According to the information provided by you, it's unlikely that this is an Ubuntu related issue. The transfer speed on your Ubuntu machine, while a bit low, lies within the USB 2.0 specification. The speed on your Windows machine exceeds the USB 2.0 specification, which is probably because your USB hub in that machine allows higher transfer rates than specified, as is the case for some newer 2.0 hubs.
