I was unsurprised to discover that the switch built into Comcast Business Class internet modems kind of sucks at dealing with a mix of gigabit and 100mb interfaces. The upgrade was to get the last machine <em>not<\/em> on gigabit up to gigabit, and suddenly the entire uplink is meaningfully faster via the wireless regardless of whether the upgraded machine is even vaguely involved. Like, a third again faster on the 802.11g &#8211; the test I just ran was a solid 30% faster than the previous best speed. It&#8217;s kind of nuts.<\/p>\n<p>This implies the Comcast Business modem\/switch is making some really stupid decisions internally. Make sure to configure your LAN so it doesn&#8217;t have to make those decisions and life will be better.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, back to digging out.
