I just read over @ TomsHardware about the GS108 Gigabit Switch that supports Jumbo Frames (I want this in my network to support my shiny new ReadyNAS)
But I am confused by the following............
"You'll know right away if you try to use a jumbo frame-enabled PC with non-jumbo frame gear. For example, everything worked fine when I network-browsed over to another jumbo frame-enabled PC. But when I tried to web browse, I got very slow page loads and sometimes none at all. This was because my router's 10/100 Ethernet switch that I had the GS108 uplinked to couldn't properly deal with the jumbo-sized data packets I was sending."
Are there any routers that support Jumbo Frames?
The DLINK 4300 Gaming Router is Gigabit, but apparently does not support Jumbo Frames.
Whats a Gigbit newbie to do??!!
Waiting for some collective wisdom, TIA
