All ports on the Hub Two and ONT are auto negotiate up to 1000Mbps, your symptoms suggest a defect cable.
The speeds achieved directly connected to the ONT will be that of your contract.
EDIT or @MisterW suggestion
SECOND EDIT: try this command in a dos box
wmic nic where netEnabled=true get name, speed

Sounds like your laptop might only have a 10/100! nic

Crikey! That wmic is a powerfully complicated command (being trying it out in my Win 8.1 machine - is deprecated for Win 10 and beyond). I might even be able to use it to investigate some questions I previously had about a little Wi-Fi adaptor I bought for my PC.
I found this link: https://www.cyberithub.com/20-useful-wmic-command-examples-in-windows-cheat-sheet/

Don't know where you've seen that term, but I'm guessing it is a term used to 'describe' a Windows machine.

Interesting @Dan_the_Van - any chance you could share it for a Linux 'newbie'?
