The BGW350 that they give you tops out at 5Gbit on the WAN SFP interface and has one 5Gbit RJ45 LAN interface along with two gigabit interfaces. I connected the 5Gbit to a TP-Link TLSX105 10Gbit switch which has five 10Gbit RJ45 switch ports. Since my office is on another floor and has more stuff that needs to be hardwired, I have a TP Link TLSX1008 10Gbit switch that has eight 10Gbit switch ports. I connected the two together and, presto, 5Gbit for everyone. My Macs have OWC 10Gbit Thunderbolt NICs so they can each get the full 5Gbit. I tried using a Mikrotik CRS switch/router thing, but dealing with SFP inconsistencies is annoying as hell and it was a very slow router. (You need the higher end CCR routers to get 10Gbit routing, but I just wanted to have all of my devices use the Pi-Hole for DNS, which I could do with DHCP.) |
