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
Nope, potentially heading for a broadcast storm with a bit of confused wiring… it happens!
If you are worrying about throughput, you don’t understand networking, and especially not switching.
Just daisychain as needed.
