Taking Bandwidth
I have noticed something that I presume is not normal.
I have a wireless router connected to the internet that is then connected to a four port switch.
The computer that is connected to the router directly (wireless connection) has upload bandwidth of up to 32 KB/SEC.
As I boot each of the other computers up...this then starts dropping by up to 2 KB/SEC....at least one of the other computers that takes some of the bandwidth is a fresh install with no applications installed that would use any of the bandwidth available.
By the time all the computers are online I am down to 26 KB/SEC...does a router allocate some bandwidth to each computer on the network regardless of if the actual computer is using it or needs it ?
I am going to try just using the router tonight and not the second switch...although this is going to be tricky due to cable length.
