I currently have a FIOS modem/router which have all my PCs connected to. All the PCs have dynamic address and are set up in the ARP table in the router. I have several port forwarding set up in the router (so I can access the PCs from outside, admin, etc.), and I do a lot of file exchange between the PCs. Since all the PCs have gigabit lan card, and I really want to improve the file transfer speed, what is the best way, and easiest way to make the internal network a gigabit network, without bridging the FIOS router.
I was told the only thing I need to do is get a gigabit switch, connect the PCs and the router to the switch, and then set up all the PCs using static address. I currently do not have any spare switch, but do have one gigabit wireless router at hand. Can I accomplish the task? Please give detail instruction, I'm a newbie on the network stuff.
