So after a week of trying to figure out how to make our ERP system faster on the users side "server 2008 with intel gigabit network card on a tblink cheap router" i found out that getting a gigabit switch and tweaking some of the settings on the network card cut the time of report preparing by 60%, thats good but still now enough since our customers have really big data.
so i was thinking if i get a 10/100/1000/2.5g switch and network card, would that work since the stations have gigabit ethernet cards with buffers maxed out to 512/128 ? or would it be the same as the already installed gigabit card and switch? i have 5 users using the system btw.
another question, they used wifi and am changing it to ethernet, i have to customer service users in the ground floor almost 100 meters away, maybe more, would it be better to have another switch in between or just the cable from the main switch?
appreciate your support to my naive networking skills.
Cheers
