Hi all
I have a router with 4 wired ports
Then I have two sixteen port switches connected
From there my house it hardwired like a mad man.
My question: Should I plug 2 ports from the router to each switch, will that free up a bottle neck?
the way I have it now there are 2 unused ports on the router. Seems a waste.
And I got like 10 things on each switch with only 1 Ethernet going to the router, isn’t that a terrible bottle neck ?
Thx
What is your actual bottleneck?
10 devices on a switch isn’t a bottleneck especially in a home environment. The chances of a normal use scenario where all 10 devices are maxing on out gig networking is next to zero.
