: Is my house almost done and do you have any quick tips? I need some help ASAP!
I want to get 10gbe network across ALL of my devices right now, not just a few computers. My NAS machines are already connected directly to each other, and they are also all connected to my Windows PCs through an RJ45 cable that goes straight from PC to NAS. I have many more than ten of these cables because I bought extra ones. Yesterday I bought this little TP-Link switch with five ports for 10gbe and wanted it installed everywhere. But here is the problem: I don't have any money left in my bank account, so I can't buy more stuff right now. This is really confusing to me because I just want to make my wireless faster for transferring files from computer to NAS or vice versa. Does my Wi-Fi router actually need a 10gbe port to get better upload and download speeds within my home? I am only worried about speed when moving things between computers and the network storage, not playing games online. If I install all that hardware above on top of my existing router, will anyone notice any difference in how fast data goes wirelessly? My Wi-Fi router is an Asus RT-AX58U with a WiFi 6 chip and a rating of up to 2402 Mbps plus some other numbers. It has three ports but only gigabit speeds, not ten gbe speeds. Is all this new stuff pointless if I don't have the right ports on my Wi-Fi router? I really don't understand how to fix this or what is happening with cables and routers and just look online and get confused more than ever before because I am not sure anymore please help me out here! jake

If you connect your gadgets to the switch and traffic moves just between them, the router isn't really working hard. You could turn it off for a while and the stuff would still talk to each other easily. Its main job is giving out IP addresses so they stay active for about 24 hours or more on their own. Any devices attached only get gigabit speed because that's what the ports are like, nothing faster nearby. Don't even think you can have super fast internet from there like 1gbit or 10gbit.
