I have a 24-port 10/100Mbps switch with 1-port 1Gbps port switch.
Assume all computers have 100Mbps NICs.
Lets say 2 computers are connected on 2 of the 10/100Mbps ports. They talk to each other at 100Mbps (each way).
Now lets say that I connect 2 more computers to the hub on 2 different 10/100Mbps ports. They also start talking to each other (but not to the other two).
Do all computers still talk at 100Mbps or are all computers reduced to 50Mbps?
What about when 24 computers are connected?
What happens with a 1Gbps port and a 10/100Mbps port?
Now lets say uplink two switches together...
If I take two x-over cables and connect two 10/100 Mbps ports together, does that mean its can now handle a 200Mpbs total between the two?
