8 way switch FS 108

Hi can anyone please help I have just had talktalk fast fiber fitted 500mb I am getting 500mb from the router to the 8 way switch but when measured from the out side of the 8 way switch to the tv I only get  90mb is this a limited 0utput from each port on the switch and do I need a switch that will let 500mb through each port.

 

many thanks to all

   Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
for Documentation.  Get the Product Data Sheet.  Read.  Look for "1000"
or "gigabit".

 

   When the FS108 was designed, 100Mb/s was considered "Fast".

 

> [...] is this a limited 0utput from each port [...]

 

   "0utput" and "Input".  Ethernet is bidirectional.

 

> [...] do I need a switch that will let 500mb through each port.

 

   Yes.  Look for a model whose specs mention "1000" or "gigabit".
