Hello,

I have 5 computers running win7 Ultimate x64.All have gigabit lan ports so they are connected using a 8 port Gigabit Switch to share the files and printers.
(ip assigned to each pc in range 192.168.x.x)

I read that if any one port or a cable connecting the gigabit ports is not gigabit standard then the whole network comes down to 100mbps (4 gig lan nic and 1 10/100 nic will down the speed)

So if i connect my DSL modem to this switch (sharing broadband) ,my LAN will come down to 100mbps ? (the modem specs shows that the LAN port on modem is 10/100)

best wishes
