    Want to hear others thoughts or suggestions on my setup

    Ok when I get back over to his house sometime to test it if I am in that ball park I won't worry about it than. I will save my old gaming rig parts to rebuild into a box for other people to use than.

    Want to hear others thoughts or suggestions on my setup

    Yea I know that is why I can't test the gig network here as I don't have switch that will support it. So would you say getting 10-11MB/s would be good than or not for a 100 Mb/s network or should I be maxing that baby out? Also taking a educated guess, what kind of numbers would you say we...

    MBytes, but I think I will need to run the server over there sometime and check again as I don't think either one of us are remembering correctly. Here at home on my 100MB network I get between 10-11 MB per sec. Also is there any software that is best for testing network speed?

    Best lan Config?

    You are correct! We have tried ipconfig -all and everything seems normal. My question is if it is a server issues why does it only effect certain people? Also when the LAN party starts to die down, people who had issues can finally see everything? The ubuntu DNS server should have nothing to...

    Best lan Config?

    Oh sorry I jumbled my thoughts when I was typing them out in my first post. I was considering the hardware reconfiguration to work out some speed and performance issues the Dlink switch seems to have. I was thinking I could use the Dell switch in managed mode along with the router to come up...
