OK, I am a REAL networking dumby!
I have an M1 MBP connected to a Caldigit Hub (with 2.5 g networking.) This connects into my wall Cat6 with a 20 foot run to my switch. Switch is a TrendNet 6 Port 10G switch. MY 2 Synologys have a 10G net card, one each into the 10G ports on switch. The MBP comes in on a 2.5 gig port. I have 1 gig fiber in also.
So all good.
I run open speed test between MBP and SYnology. DOWN IS 972 MBPS AND UP IS 2315 MBPS
So I can tell the 2.5 gig connect works at least up.... but why not down too?
And when I run a network speed test I get:
Okola:564Mbps down 664 up
Speedcheck 326 Down 116 Mbps up
Im thinking about uping my fiber to 2.5 gig but not if the throughput stays low.
Any suggestions on how to get some of those speeds up, or what I am doing wrong? Or am I expecting too much? I see the synology up speed and I think I should be getting that everywhere.... or at least up to 950Mbps in Internet or so...
