What is the best setup for a small office with a dedicated server running Windows SBS2003 and 5 clients all wired, no wireless planned?
Options I have seen are: internet -> hardware firewall -> gigabit switch, internet -> router with built in switch with software firewall, or internet -> router ->gigabit switch with software firewall.
Does gigabit communication between the pcs and server provide a noticeable over 10/100 options?
Would like to keep the cost reasonable, office just bought new server and will be replacing two of the client pcs.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help
