Hi
I am looking to setup a gigabit network so my PC can talk faster to my network attached storage drive. Both the PC and NAS say they have gigabit ports.
My ISP is Sky and unfortunately the supplied adsl router only does 10/100 networking. Sky don't provide a username and password like other ISPs, they are is embedded in the router so swopping to a non sky router isn't straight forward.
I'm wondering if I buy a 10/100/1000 switch and plug my network cables for the computers and NAS directly to that, then one link from that to the Sky router will I be able to get 1000 speed between the PC and NAS?
Thanks
