slower internet gs305
Hello, I'm experiencing speeds that fluctuate between full and less than 1/3 of my ISP. I sadly only have a 3 Down by 1 Up speed where I'm located and a drop to 1 by 0.5 is basically stop me in m...
Thanks for the reply, No1Mportnt .
Unfortunately I live in spot with limited internet options and any decent one cost to much. I do agree its minimal but I have what I have. :\ I was hoping the drop in speed would be minimul, which considering my network, 1 mbps is not minimul for me but it would be for others.
After the 2nd switch I have 1 desktop, 1 network printer, & occationally 1 laptop (it has wifi connection issues). I suppose I could plug my desktop straight into the wall jack, then usb the printer into my desktop and just share it on the network, although I'll have to my desktop on in order for others to print or have them them plug into the USB.
I was hoping I was doing something wrong with the way I had things networked. It sounds like I'll just have to learn to live with this or figure out how to eliminate the 2nd switch.
Thanks for the help. If anyone else has any suggestions, please let me know.

Does not make any sense to me.
Two GbE links can be linked up, like router<->switch<->switch<->computer and there must be about one Gigabit speed from router to the computer.
