Glad you went for the router option and not the Modem > Router > Switch as you wouldn't have seen any speed benefit from it unless you did alot of large local lan file transfers.

Chap at work mentioned that today, I missed it as per usual.

Re: Gigabit router
 

I'm using the D-Link DIR 655 Router and I have just been into the 50Mb Modem settings and it states, Ethernet Link Status 1000 Mbps/Full duplex.
Does this mean that the Modem is connecting at the highest speed it can, depending on the speed of the Router and NIC, confused..... :dozey:

Re: Gigabit router
 

That is the connection speed between the modem and router.
Which is the fastest it will achieve, It's not your internet speed.
Unfortunately.

Re: Gigabit router
 

Check out the LAN-to-WAN throughput.

It seems impossible to obtain this figure for most domestic routers - even gigabit ones.

You can find these figures for commercial routers but you'll need to get quite a big one to get over 50Mbps out of it.

Re: Gigabit router
 

Not true, i had a normal WRT54Gv5 with DD-WRT on it, WAN-LAN bandwith was over 80Mbps.

Got my new router yesterday, Very nice indeed.
Only slight problem is when I start my PC Vista 64 keeps asking for drivers for it, There are none????.
Weird.
