LAN Speed

What's your LAN speed? My maximum speed is 100Mbit/sec but I picked mixed, since my network is sort of complex to tell, here is a "circuit card" of my LAN.

I don't have visio or anything so I just used paint. Hope you can understand it.

Everyone else feel free to add your network's "circuit card"

Now, if my lan could be turned into a WAN, it would beat most of the cards I've filed at work.

hmm just noticed I can't upload when I start a poll...

Oh and that graysh PC is not there yet. It will be a local server that is connected to my router and my hub, probably. It will have two network cards.

But those plans will probably change, and it will only be there for local only.

lol yeah my network is quite complicated for 2 computers. Right now it's a bit different. I have two computers in my room connected to a 10mbps hub which connects to the router downstairs, and the pc downstairs is connected to the router. I dual boot (upstairs) linux as I'm learning it by playing around and stuff so I need a close PC to test connections to it. (web server etc...)

I still did not build this so called local server of mine. Not sure when the funds will come.

as in local server do you mean like a file server or a web server?

In this case it's a web server. But once I build a seperate server I'll use it as a
"everything" server. It will act as dns, web, netbios (if that works in linux, still not sure) and I might even use it as mail gateway if possible, a global place for spam to get filtered at then delivered to each mailbox. What I have in mind is configurating local addresses in outlook on all the computers, and having the external ones configured on the gateway and it would simply forward it locally. Not sure how that would work though. That's only something I'll play with once I really know what I'm doing. I might also set it up as a router, and have the servers listen on the local interface only.
