I have recently upgraded to 3.0 gb internet (TELUS in Canada) and I’m looking to get the most out of the home network.
The TELUS modem has one 10gb out which currently goes into a 1gb TP Link switch. The house is wired with CAT5E which I understand can exceed 1.0 gb in some circumstances.
The CAT 5E primarily feeds into Eero Pro 6s, and some other peripherals (appletv, Xbox, etc.). We’ll likely upgrade to the Eero Max 7 once they become less ludicrously expensive.
Would it make sense to upgrade the switch to a 10G output? I’m looking at the Netgear XS505M. Or is it not worthwhile with the limitations of the CAT 5E?
