hey guys i have searched every where for a solution for my problem but nothing helps hope you can do it heres the problem i have two pc`s with this specs main pc : threadripper 2950x msi x399 sli plus 32gb ram tridentz 2x 1070 ti as sli 970 samsung evo 1tb and a wireless network cart from asus i use this pc for video editing and 3d modeling and rendering (unreal engine , zbrush , max , premiere , after effect , illustrator are my softwares that i use most of the time ) and of course little bit of dota and battlefield and heres my server pc that i store all of my data in it msi 970A - G43 AMD FX-6300 12 gb of 2400 ram (idk witch brand adata i guess ) MSI AMD 7970 as VGA (hell yeah still rocks in many games ) (and yeah i am kind of msi fanboy) 4x 2tb seagate hdd and an intel 1gbs network cart so whene im trying to edit some videos in from network in my main pc the server crashes with no error or blue screen it just stuck i cant even move the mouse and the only way that remains is restarting that server pc specially in after effect or whene im using transitions in primiere (in max and maya i have no problem) pleas guys please help im getting mad.

Have you attempted to transfer files to your PC rather than modifying them directly on the server? How does your network performance behave during peak usage? Are you limiting your bandwidth while working or cleaning a timeline? Which operating<|pad|> can you be using on each device?

well yeah i have no problem in editing my footages in my main pc ok so i live in iran( yeaaaah scary country) things like network stuff is kind of rare or to much expensive here . and a good router is so expensive here also ( they produce their own router as name of zyxel and you cant count on that to much) so i did this : i bought an intel mt1000 1Gbs pro series cart for 20 bucks and i have an onboard 1 Gbs network cart on my x399 mainboard and connect them with a cat6 cable then i bought an asus wirless cart for my x399 to connect to router and a direct cable from server pc to router(100 mbs onboard cart) before i get that intel cart i connected both pc to router and used router network to do my job( u have no idea how much painfull was that ) after doing this setup i had good speed and real time 1080 timeline edit with no problem but this freezes is making me insane. i use windows 10 pro on both pcs and i even tried linux (KDE) but couldn't handle to share server probably so i make a step back to windows. i actually tried to monitor server pc while editing nothing suspicion happened . never reached 100 percent in editing ( it gets 100 percent in rendering but i have no problems in rendering ) is there any chance that because that intel cart is to old (last driver for it released in 2013 ) and causes this problems ?

Yes, you can connect Wi-Fi to your router, establish a wired link to the router, and then link it directly to your server all at once.

There's certainly merit for two of those things, but not all three. For example I had my PC hooked up to my NAS over 5Gbit over a VLAN and Gigabit to the LAN. This avoids transfers from SSDs in the NAS from ever swamping Internet traffic. That said when video editing, surely that's a none issue? You REALLY don't want Steam or a Windows Update to be downloading while editing anyway.

There’s a clear distinction between the high-speed 10Gb fiber network for file sharing and the slower 1Gb network used for Internet and WebUI management. Everything makes sense. My goal was to understand his statements as accurately as possible. I noticed potential problems if Wi-Fi and Ethernet were both active on the same network, especially since the system automatically selects the least costly path. In fact, I’ve had issues with this setting before on Windows.

Sure, I understand. You’ve set up a separate network for the internet and a local server. Removing Wi-Fi seems tricky, especially with the network speed you mentioned. It might be related to how your network is configured. If Windows is causing issues, consider switching to a Linux distribution like Manjaro or Ubuntu. I’m sorry for the delayed response—I’m a nurse and have limited experience with Linux networking.

I have several reasons to discourage reliance on Microsoft products, particularly their operating systems. This isn't a solid justification for moving to another platform. Transitioning involves many hurdles, but well-supported GNU/Linux distributions are simplifying the process daily. Are your devices limited to 100Mbps ports? You could purchase an affordable 1Gig switch and connect it to your router, then link your devices through that switch. What follows is the switch using a Forwarding Table. This table matches Layer 2 source and destination MAC addresses within network frames. If a destination MAC isn't present, it broadcasts to all ports except the one receiving data. When it receives a reply from the connected interface, that information is added to the table for subsequent use. In essence, this means your computer should be capable of communicating with servers at gigabit speeds even if the router only supports 100Mbps.

It sounds like you're planning to consolidate the setup into one network using a single 1Gbps switch. That could definitely help prevent freezing issues. Since you mentioned network costs are a concern, it's wise to evaluate the potential savings and performance benefits before moving forward.
