| 287826 | 2004-11-04 04:59:00 | This is probably a self explanatory query but I'm going to ask anyway. I have a Nokia M1122 ADSL modem/router (max speed is 10Mbps) this is connected via a crossover cable to a SOHO 8 port switch (max speed is (100Mbps) There are 3 PC's connected to the network. Now I was thinking that the Nokia would create a bottleneck in the data rate as it is slower than the speed of the switch. So theoretically if I got an ADSL modem which supported 100Mbps this would make data transfer from the net a bit faster. Currently on the 256K/128 Jetream Surf plan. Your comments and thoughts appreciated. cheers chiefnz |

| 287828 | 2004-11-04 05:16:00 | I think you would need an internet connection of around 9-10MBps for any bottle neck to be created by the M1122 IMO... | HadO (796) | ||
