Switch binding?

easyrider · 7 Apr 2014 at 08:13

I have my server in the garage...from the garage I have run 3 x cat 6 cable to the switch in the study in the house....currently I have just one live cat 6 connected to the server feeding movies around the house connected to the switch.

Anyway I ran into some buffering issues when I tried streaming 3x 1080p videos to 3 TVs in the house at the same time.

I was chatting to a mate and he said I could bind all three cables in the garage to the switch in the study to make a 3 gig connection from garage to the study improving bandwidth...

Is this possible?

Cheers

Does the HP Microserver 54L support it?

100% sure the bottleneck is the network and not disk or CPU on the N54L?

I will test further just to make sure....Don't think so though.

what OS are you using? if its windows server you will find a binding / teaming options on the adapter settings.
