Hi, I have a setup query.
I have a wireless AP using only 5Ghz mode (300Mbps), this wireless AP has gigabit LAN. I have 3 devices attached to this wireless AP all running at 300Mbps (99% stable) on 5Ghz -n (obviously attached wirelessly).
As it's acting as an AP I have it connected directly to my gigabit switch.
My gigabit switch has 3 wired devices on on gigabit.
The gigabit switch then runs into modem router.
My query is, will having the AP setup like this (running directly into the gigabit switch) have any detrimental effect on the gigabit performance across the switch (i.e. the 3 gigabit devices attached to it).
From what I can recall, for the gigabit switch to function at gigabit speeds, all attachements must be on/support gigabit. This allows the 3 devices attached to it to transfer at gigabit speeds directly to one another.
However, although the wireless AP is attached to it via it's gigabit port, I'm worried that because it's feeding through a maximum 300Mbps from the 5Ghz wireless devices, whether this will slow down the transfers between the wired devices on the switch?
If you need me to clarify, please ask, I know it's abit all over the place with explaining.
