I've got SKY broadband running on fibre at 40mbs. Like it a lot but the router supplied isn't the best as you would expect. The main problem is it only has 3 ethernet ports left after plugging in the modem and they only run at 100mbs. I liked my old router which ran at a gigabit speed for when I was using my server.
Can I plug the SKY router into an 8 port gigabit router and then plug my computer, server, printer and raspberry pi into the 8 port router? I will only buy a cheapish one from ebay. Don't say change the SKY router as I tried that but they don't like you changing it and also I couldn't get it working with the broadband.
Any ideas? Thanks from TS with less hair than yesterday!
