I forgot about that, Dries. In some cases, a single 10mbps device can slow down part or all of a 100/1000 LAN.
Quote:All is well with a mix of 100/1000 devices (full 50mbps broadband speed achieved), but when a 10base-T device is attached (directly to router or through a gigabit switch), internet traffic is unable to get beyond 10mbps on ANY device on the entire network!!
The link speeds are still individually negotiated to 100 or 1000 (or so they claim), but something is dragging traffic down to 10Mbps. As soon as the 10base-t device is disconnected or powered off, everything returns to normal.
