Hexenhammer Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 Hello, So I have copper network and my router has x2 10GB ports, one for 2.5G Fiber ISP and otehr for my Main PC. Basically the cheapest Switch i can buy is QNAP x2 10G ports and x5 2.5Gb ports, its about 200USD and i f i get it ill just be using 3 ports, 2.5Gb uplink to router and two 10Gb ports I rather save money with direct connection, and maybe get tad faster performance and lower latency, Please tell me if this setup is possible: Unraid: 1Gb to Router [this part is problematic, i know that without this is posible to connect Unraid to PC and PC to be connected to router] Unraid: 10GB Aquantia to my PC 10Gb Aquantia My PC: 2.5GB to Router My PC: 10Gb Aquantia to Unraid 5Gb Aquantia Is this possible? I want to have the Unraid still have access to my Network say to stream directly to TV or to access files from iPad pro Thank in advance Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 It's not a problem, just use different subnets. Quote Link to comment

In windows in the Ethernet adapter settings right? And in Unraid? What i wonder how will the computers know to connect each otehr trough direct 10Gb connection instead of going trough 1Gb router connection? Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Use the 10GbE IP address or just add the Unraid server to the Windows hosts file. Quote Link to comment
