ill chime in as I was searching threads about networking as I have a major issue going on. didnt realize it until I started moving files over to my new server ( server 2016 standard with essentials experience role added in..
but I was moving my family photos folder over and im getting 10MB/s transfer rate... ughhhhhh
anyway back on track..
Dell Powerconnect 2724 (24x 10/100/1000) and those speeds are putrid so issue somewhere....
bought this switch a very long time ago.. maybe time to upgrade...
I have an Cisco SG-220-poe. I use an Edgerouter Lite for layer3.
I also have an HP1800-8G at my desk for expansion, although the feature set is terrible (no spanning tree? REALLY??). I have an HP 1910-16G which is "ok" and does L3 light but I'm not using it. It's on my todo list. It was my primary switch before I switched to the SG220.
I don't have much tolerance anymore for switches without a CLI.
I recently upgraded my core switch from a Cisco SG300-20 to a C2960S-24TS-L. Pairing it with my Cisco 1921 Router for ISP access just made sense. My lab switches are now Cisco 3560 and 3750G models. I have 2 2960 swtiches for pure L2 stuff.
