My home network is setting up as from cable modem to switch. From switch, it splits to a rounter and a laptop. The PC is plugged into the rounter. The laptop is pluged directly into the switch.
Can you see anything wrong with this? It was ok when I had DSL, but now with cable, the laptop is very slow.
