I am assuming, that the slowest component on a network determines the connect speed? I am having a small network with 4 pcs and 2 of them show 1GB connect speed while the other 2 show 100MB. What would cause 2 units to run at the 100MB speed on a Gigabyte-Switch and Router?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm looking into upgrading my WAN link to 100Mb via Fast Ethernet link. I'm waiting to hear from ISP about what exact technology they use, but according to my manager they will be coming in over fiber and then terminate to copper. I currently have 2811 in production with two T1 cards bundled together. 2811 has basic configuration with only 2 ACLs. I have ASA 5510 for NAT, Ipsec and other services. What router or networking device (layer 3 switch, such as 3560G perhaps??) should I use to accomodate 100Mb link? It seems that 2811 will not handle that kind of bandwith..In short the max recommended bandwidth limits for the 28xx series are as follows:
2801--2 Mbps
2811-4 Mbps
2821-8 Mbps
2851-12 Mbps
I don't want to create a bottleneck and am looking for appropiate solution to accomodate 100Mb link. Also, could ASA 5510 become a bottleneck in my scenario?According to Cisco docs ASA5510 can handle 300Mbps of firewall througput, but I'm not sure how it'd work in production...
if i plug a cisco 880 router in to a 100MB WAN Ethernet circuit what throughput will i get? on cisco site it says 25mb/sec but if it is Ethernet shouldn't it be done in hardware and get the full 100mb/sec?
I know that a 1841 plugged in to a 40MB WAN circuit can match that speed but Cisco site say it only can do E1 speed.
I have a 100 Mbps router (which I can't change). But all my computers, media players/streamers, NAS have gigabit Ethernet. Currently, under exclusive use I do approach the 100 Mbps limit (seen a lot of times my laptop transferring files from/to NAS around 14 MBps). But since my devices are capable of handling higher speeds I am thinking to upgrade to a Gigabit switch. That brings me to my question.
If I have 100 MBps router and a Gigabit switch (1k Mac table), what will be max speed between devices connected through the switch?
I am aware anything that goes via the router will hit the roof at 100 Mbps. But will the devices under the switch operate at Gigabit (due to the direct transfer based on mac address)? Or will everything still go through the router who is giving out the IP addresses (the switch having no DHCP) and limit the speed?
I am currently connected to my router via a 100 megabit cable (the router port itself is either 100M or 1G, I can't remember). There are no free ports on the router, but I want to connect additional computers to the network. If I get a gigabit switch and connect two of my PCs to it using gigabit cable, can they communicate at gigabit speeds, or will they be limited by the 100M connection back to the router? (In other words, does traffic between two computers on the switch have to be sent through the router, or not?)
View 2 Replies View RelatedWe had 1.5 Mbps, but we just upgraded to 8 Mbps. Right away we noticed that we couldn't connect to the Playstation network on the PS3, and loading Google would take several tries. In some cases you couldn't even refresh the page to load Google, you would have to open a new tab. We would have bursts of good speeds from online speed tests, ranging from 8.6Mbps down to not being able to load the test, and everything in between. urls... live in Wisconsin and my ISP is Centurylink (formerly Centurytel), a technician came over yesterday and checked our box outside and inside and said that it was our Margin (db), if I remember correctly. Here is the info from my router: [code] The technician ended up lowering our speed to 6 Mbps, and said that everything looked good, and left. The Margin (db) was at 7.3 inside and 9.7 outside before he lowered it, and he thought that if we could hit 10, we would be fine. If that's the case then it seems like the margin is not the problem. If we are using too much speed could we set QoS on a router (would need a different router) to limit the bandwidth?

I just "upgraded" from an E1000 to an E1200 wireless router. I had good performance with the E1000, and I only upgraded to the E1200 because it was on sale.My only complaint with the E1200 is the slower download speed on my desktop PC that is connected directly to the router. My normal download speed on the desktop PC was 25 Mbps with the E1000 model. After I disabled the WMM on the E1200 as others suggested, the download speed on the desktop machine immediately increased from 5 Mbps up to 15 Mbps. Any other suggestions to get the download speed up to 25 Mbps before I switch back to my E1000? The E1200 router is connected to my Arris TM602G modem. Both modem and router were reset during the installation process. I setup parental controls for a couple of iPods and configured Open DNS, but other than that, the router is using default settings. All wireless devices in the house seem to be performing fine with the E1200.

I just received a new computer with the G41M-ES2H motherboard. Everything works as long as I use an ethernet cable, but I want to set it up to access the Internet wirelessly since I already have a wireless network.

If I need a wireless card, which one is best for normal home-office type Internet use?

View 5 Replies View Relatedyou have a Cable Modem and are paying for 30MB/sec download or better service, but the network connection on the cable modem is only 10/100; all very common today.Your network connection is showing it's connected at 100 (computer - router - cable modem)....now on the technical side, remember that a 100 MB network connection can only transfer data at a maximum rate of 12.5 MB/sec (not something the normal home user knows or even thinks about).So here's the question; why would you pay for 30MB/sec download speeds when the cable modem itself can only transfer (in theory) 12.5MB/sec to you over the network?

View 1 Replies View RelatedSo I recently got a new computer today and it won't let me use my 100mbps of internet bandwidth. (Asus Sabertooth Z77 with an Intel 82579v gigabit lan controller) I noticed that at the LAN connection properties>Properties>Configure>Link Speed tab the 'Speed and Duplex' option was on Auto Negotiation and it was only accepting (or supporting) the 10mbps Full Duplex. When I switched it to 100mbps Full Duplex it would mark my connection icon with a red cross and when I clicked diagnose it said "Please connect your ethernet cable or your cable might be broken". So I tested my internet speed with that same cable on a different computer (laptop) and it worked with 40Mbps, so I don't think the cable is broken. Also I just recently downloaded some drivers but one was specifically for the Intel LAN controller but I'm a total noob for all of this computer stuff I don't know if it messed it up or something. Is it the motherboard that's not working correctly?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have three ESW-540-24 10/100/1000 Switches in a small school environment
1. ESW performs as a server switch for out small cluster of VMWare ESXi Hosts and iSCSI SAN with a link-aggregation/lacp/etherchannel connection to the backbone switch, and a Link-Aggregated Connection to the thrid ESW switch via a multimode optic fibre link to a near-site backup and DR location
2. The second ESW acting as network backbone links back to the server switch and our older LinksysSRW224G4 (four SRW224G4s) switches using Aggregated Links / LACP to reduce bandwidth contention and allow for link redundancy
3. The third ESW as mentioned previously is at the backup DR location linked back to Switch 1
When using Single 1GB links between these three switches I can almost saturate the 1GB link (80-95% utilisation) as soon as link aggregation is configured by bonding 2x 1GB links together to form an etherchannel link utilisation will not exceed 100MB (network monitor graph on a server/ workstation runs flat at 10% utilisation) I have tested this multiple times useing large file transfers accross our SANs (which have high enough throughput to saturate links) and can confirm that performance degradation occurs as soon as an etherchannel is configured on the same ports (regardless of manually setting admin speed and duplex of copper ports etc) all indicators specify that ports are running at 1GB even though throughput REDUCES by 90%.
We are not running the latest firmware yet (2.0.3), however I have read the release notes for newer versions (2.1.16 and 2.1.19) and there is no indication of a fix for etherchannel/lacp performance issues.
I have a spare usb HDD and wish to connect to an existing network switch (rj45 connections) if it works on a gigabyte network all the better

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've just set up my E4200 and none of my wireless N clients connect at full speed. Irrespective of what wireless settings I use they all seem to connect at around half speed. My laptop for example insists on connecting at 144.4 Mbps though it supports 300 Mbps. Periodically it will connect at 300Mbps, but the next time the I reconnect or I make a settings change on the router (irrespective of what the change is) the speed drops back to 144.4. Clients that support 150Mbps connect a consistent 65Mbps.I'm running FW 1.0.02, though the problem existed with 1.0.01 (I hard reset before and after upgrade) and I've tried re-flasing the 1.0.02 firmware.Any combination of channel, width, mode and security type etc doesn't seem to influence the performance. Nor does distance (the client above is 3ft from the router).My previous router was located in exactly the same place as the E4200 and I had a solid full speed connection all over the house.
