I see! Yea I know, but we might want to use those to expand if the amount of people exceeds what we have originally planned! :) Seems like I am all set then! Thanks a lot guys, really appreciate the help! :)

Ah I see! I can see how that could be useful, but I don't think we will be playing around with that in the foreseeable future. As of right now we just want a simple LAN for 100 people that can be in separate areas if need be, and QoS for the popular games. Yea I saw that after I posted the pic...

Why would I want this manageable if I want to do all the QoS in PfSense? (I realize this looks aggressive but I assure you it's not :D)

Created a fast chart of the network that is actually quite a bit cheaper than the other one Is this something like what you would recommend? EDIT: Possibly just run SF102-24 switches instead of the SF300-24 ?

I see! This makes sense, and I feel quite stupid for not thinking of that myself tbh haha. But the QoS in PfSense should be able to handle QoS for the now single port to WAN? Sorry if I am asking basic questions about this, but haven't arranged anything this big before.

So if I would do it like this: Single port Intel NIC to Cisco SG100D-05 switch from router. This switch will go out to each other switch. That would be preferable? :)

Interesting! How come they won't accomplish that (or at least near that)? The idea that I had was that in future places we might want to/have to separate the different switches into different rooms or areas. I was also thinking that I might want separate QoS settings and the like. I...

Yea I basically want our list of games to be prioritized over all other traffic, as I expect there will be a lot of torrenting and YouTube for example. As I don't want our Internet connection to get slow. What do you think about the general setup though? I had some thoughts about going...

Yes, all the clients have the same priority, but different traffic should be prioritized by their ports. My understanding is that QoS can be handled using ports so to speak. So for example ports for games such as WoW and CS can be prioritized over all other traffic. The question is if it...

Hi guys! So, me and a couple of friends are thinking about arranging a LAN for about 100 people and I have some questions regarding the setup of the network. The current idea is that we are going to use a left-over computer running an AMD Phenom II X4 965 at 3.4GHz and 8GB RAM. This will...

Hi! Me and my family will be getting fiber-connection at our cottage house, and I thought this would be an opportune time to create some sort of two-location-backup of sorts. As our picture and video library from family gatherings and such has begun to grow quite a lot, we would like some sort...
