Have acquired a gigbit switch but am wondering what will happen with the below network
The NAS and the PC's are all GB Ethernet ready but the Draytek router and WAP are only 100Mbps as are some of the other peripherals connected to the switch. Is it safe to assume that where GB connections are available it will maintain 1000Mbps or will having slower connections on the network bring the whole lot down to the lowest denominator ?
The NAS is streaming media to our TV's at the moment over WI/FI and that is currently fine until I get round to installing some more cat5e.
The router and the WAP both have 4 port switches on the back so if it was more advantageous to group the slower devices together I can do this from the patch panel.
Finally apologies for potentially a simple question and terrible sketch
