I have a homemade pfSense router, which feeds a D-link 16-port switch, and a wireless router and all other devices are connected to that. Sounds like if I test the speed, I'll find that the 10mbps port on the lightning receiver isn't slowing the rest of my LAN down.
I don't know what a managed switch is.
Managed switch you can log in to the switch can change parameters.
Configure the ports to be for VLANs, Trunks vs Access, manually set speed and duplex, etc...
Normally used in the business world.
