searching for a 2.5 Mbps connection
You've shared your setup details before and are curious about optimizing your current connection. Based on what you've described, pairing a 2.5Gbps switch with your existing OEM router might not be ideal since the switch is limited to 100/20 speeds. You'd likely need a router that supports higher speeds or a switch capable of handling 2.5Gbps for full performance. Consider upgrading to a compatible device if you want better results.
