One Ethernet cable for two devices
One Ethernet cable for two devices
Hi, I live in ontario canada and currently on 500mb download and 20mb upload. I am just wondering if I am able to get a splitter that gives both of my pcs max speed. If so, any recommendations. Another thing I always wanna ask: if I stream at 4000 bitrates, how much upload bandwidth am I expecting to use？(in mb)
You can't just divide Ethernet that way. You'll need a switch or two from the router.
I just connected an ethernet cable from the router to my room and it worked well. I was wondering if using a splitter would help divide the signal, but I’m not sure how it functions. If it’s similar to HDMI or USB splitters, I’d like to buy one on Amazon now.
A hub functions similarly, while a switch enables several devices to transmit and receive simultaneously.
You're looking at 500MB used with one device, leaving 495MB for another. With a 100Mbps connection, each device would get 100MB, but a 1Gbps switch costs about $2 extra—better to upgrade if possible.
