So amongst other things, I used udp for my local nfs4 shares just to get transfers above 80MB/s peak.

Or sporadic errors on full moon etc.Īnd when everything kind of worked, I could never get quite what I should expect from Gig-E. Or sporadic errors wen setting MTU to more than 1500. But usually that would be sprinkled with other problems. With RTL, I had alwaas to take limitations of the hardware, if not outright bugs.

No chip overheating, no botched-but-sold HW, no wall-of-silence from their tech support, no driver problems or need to ever compile them separately out of kernel, no problems getting EVERYTHING about their chip that might ever interest me ( and more!), ni problems with utilizing all those extra features etc etc. If you want to have no problems, go with Intel. Is Gb networking necessary in the home? No, one could do fine with 100BT, but since the price difference isn't very large-and most things come with Gb networking these days-it seems a prudent investment to flesh out the rest of the network with Gb gear. This is one reason routers whilch can perform at these speeds have Gb ports on them. If you use wireless networking on 5GHz using 40MHz channels and more than one stream, it is easy to exceed 100Mb/s transfer rates.

If you consider SSDs, then 10Gb/s saturation becomes a possibility. There are common 2TB drives which can read/write over 200MB/s on sequential operations-like one would see in a backup/restore operation. One could make an arguement that 1Gb/s networking is easy to saturate in that situation. If you backup machines over the network, you can quickly saturate a 100Mb/s network. Playback of various other media-such as a BluRay media-can benefit from over 100Mb/s during seeks and fast forward/reverse playback. If you capture local over the air or cable television, you can get close to the bandwidth of 100BT networking if you do more than one stream at a time.

The only stupid thing would have been to not ask that question and never to have found out the answer.įaster than 100BT networking is useful inside the home for a number of things.

I am sorry if it sounds stupid, but I really want to know.That's not a stupid question at all. I mean, is there any use on the normal home PC. In what ways can such a fast port could be used for things other than connecting to the Internet. I am kind of a noob when it comes to networking stuff, but I want to know something.
