Hello,
I work at a small company with about 100 workstations and 15 servers or so for rendering and running simulations. Over the past few weeks we have been experiencing a lot of packet loss and latency on our network and we cant seem to figure out why. Originally we thought it was due to a high amount of nbns broadcasts and we turned all of our machines from hybrid node type to peer-to-peer in order to stop them from broadcasting. That kept our network solid for about a week or so but then today it started to show packet loss and latency again. We have not made any changes to the network since switching the ode type. Wireshark is not showing anything to have me believe it is some kind of network storm that is causing this. Its gotten to the poing where simply running the program "advanced ip scanner" will crash the network. Any ideas what could be happening?
Our specs are:
RV042g small business router
4 Dell Powerconnect 2848 Switches
~100 or so assorted Windows 7 64bit workstations
~15 assorted supermicro servers
2 IP printers
Let me know if you need any more information thanks!
