The ethernet connection on my 5,1 is slow when trying to share to another mac locally. I attempted a clean install of 10.14.6, PRAM reset, booted into a 10.13.5 OS. I've tried both ethernet ports. I'm the original owner and this issue just recently appeared, I haven't installed anything new besides the 10.14.6 update. I Unplugged the cable and plugged the ethernet cable into my macbook pro 2017 running 10.14.6 and was able to get normal speeds to my other shared Mac ruling out the cable or a network switch issue.

Thank you!
