Unless of course @Skie - can help and explain in more detail what he meant by this? "You can pair 2 or more ports up to pull the full speeds from it, but you need some networking skills and specialist kit to do that."
Thanks in advance

Can you please elaborate and give more details and what is involved to do this? And was you saying I can do that with just the HUB 4 too?
What kit would I need etc and what skills does it take to pair 2 ports together? Is it some kind of adapter I need that turns 2 ports on the HUB 4 into 1 that goes into my PC? |
The way i do it other may do it different,
I have a old low power PC running PFsense i have a dual port intel Gbit NIC in 1 pci slot running in LAGG Round Robbin with both ports connected back to the hub4 in modem mode this is the WAN, Then i have a intel 2.5Gbe card in the second slot this is used for LAN, that then gos into a qnap 2.5Gbe switch
my NAS and main desktop both have 2.5Gbe NICs so can take advantage all the other devices on network still run either gbit or wireless as they dont really benefit, Of corse id prefer them the hurry along with the hub 5 so get rid of the extra clutter
