Hub5x - 10gb port dropping pings
Just had VM installed and the 10gb port seems to be dropping pings like crazy, along with very high latency on speed tests 100-130ms If I connect to one of the other ports the latency and pi...

1gb NIC in my system - but surely the service should work fine from the 10gb port?
That you've a 1G NIC would've been very useful information for the first post. Use a 1G port for now, might be some weirdness between your NIC and a 10G NIC causing an auto negotiation issue. Settings on your NIC may also be problematic as well as firmware.
When you move to 10G NIC try it again.

This is VM we are talking about. I do wonder if they would have tested the HUB at 1Gbps over the 10Gbps port.
Cat 5e isn't as well shielded as CAT 6, so maybe some interference?

Unlikely over that length of cable. 5e is good for 2.5G at 100 metres so should be more than capable of 10G over that short a length or at very least something more than 1... assuming the PHY in the Hub NIC supports the intermediate speeds of course. Cable has to be genuinely broken to fail to achieve that.
