Dope Tech Episode 2

<<@Smallpages says : Thank you, As usual, clear and concise explanation, soon i may need a switch and maybe add a NAS.>> <<@omkarsahu8531 says : love your videos, so authentic and informative , great work sir>> <<@VOLTRONDEFENDER4440 says : I have used Ethernet switch before it’s the best although will have speed reduction, I went with netgear one which is good, port 5 is recommended as that’s the one seperate>> <<@NukaMilk says : Appreciate your video. My computer is using Wi-Fi but the router is on the far side of the house so my internet speeds are up and down a lot. I'm going to run a cable to my room with a splitter now.>> <<@micahtonning7967 says : Thank you for posting.>> <<@plumberski8854 says : Excellent! You made my day. I got a new router for my TV streaming with only 1 useable LAN port. I was told to get a LAN switch. Your video covers what I need to know very well.>> <<@RockinJohnnyaitken says : I have tried two swtich boxes and none of them work with my vodaphone router, as soon as I plug a switch box in it kills my internet>> <<@wesleyreeder5173 says : Finally a simplified tutorial for your average peasant like me>> <<@rojithstanly9125 says : Thanks for the nice video. Cheers>> <<@Wedgetail96 says : Your videos have really helped me out over the years and I’m thankful, as a long time subscriber. I have a question regarding switch speed. If in your setup in the garage, if the switch was a 2.5gb switch, and the two computers connected at that end were 2.5 capable, would they transfer at approx 2.5, or would the 1gb connection back to the router throttle back the entire setup? I ask, as I thought that the router managed all network traffic. Perhaps I’ve misunderstood that function.>> <<@Tom-sg4iv says : I just sold all my managed switches and got simple Tenda switches, saving about 10watt on each>> <<@Jjodoql says : Hi. I have an existing local router with 4 ports, connected 4 PC locally. I want to add extra PC but no more ports in the router. Can I use a switch and connect it to the one port on the router and connect the added PC to the switch? Just local network sharing. No internet.>> <<@Boz1211111 says : i wish you tested if its non blocking switch! cant find any info on those, and its quite important if local network is gonna be used with it as you showed copying files>> <<@archangel9845 says : Great video. Now I can go buy a switch and install it without issues. thanks again mate>> <<@stevejacob7158 says : A very easy to follow tutorial, thank you and I'm so pleased that you don't begin with "High Guys What's Up">> <<@kagedev says : Hi! Thanks a lot for the video, but I have important question: if I'll buy a switch with 2.5Gbit ports and connect it to my router, which have only 1Gbit ports, then what will be the speed between two PCs (connected to switch)? - 1Gbit or 2.5Gbit?>> <<@Ian-q7r says : Hi Christopher, Thank you for a great introduction to "switch" hardware and setting-up (I'm waiting for delivery of the same model switch from Amazon). My modem/router has only two LAN ports and both are in use (one for my computer and the other for an extension). I'm installing a NAS (Synology DS223) with just two 4TB HDDs (I'm a home user, so, I think that's sufficient capacity for me - using redundancy - not only here (in Australia) but also remotely when I'm back in the UK later this year) and a directly wired Internet connection to my NAS seems appropriate. 73, Ian>> <<@simonmortiz7428 says : NICE VIDEO AWESOME, QUESTION WILL TWO 5 PORT SG105S SWITCHES WILL THEY WORK WITH A CROSS OVER CABLE ? AND GET GOOD RESULTS ?>> <<@nickm9102 says : OK, rookie question here. I am looking to run a line to my detached garage. I bought a switch with Wi-Fi because cell phones are difficult to hard wire effectively. is there anything specific I will need to do to make it work?>> <<@Edscomment says : Great video, covers all important points ! 👍>> <<@numerouno8593 says : I'm a bit confuse on the _"cable"_ itself. Seem like you've forgot to differentiate which one is _"straight through type"_ and which one is _"cross over type"_ ??? Can you help explain it via this comment please. Thank you.>> <<@Simon-re4jg says : ROOOOOOTER ROOOOTER. You are in the UK. Thumbed down.>> <<@johng.1703 says : you can't add more ports to a network switch, what you can do is add another switch, or better yet replace the switch with a larger switch. technically you can add ports by using the stacking function of a switch and having a master / slave. daisy changing switch like this is a bad idea, the better idea would be to stop using the routers switch and just use the router as an end point, this is because of how the bandwidth would be divided up. the devices on the router will be sharing a gig connection with the switch part of that share, then the devices on the switch will share whatever bandwidth that it gets from the router. while you can do this, this isn't the optimal configuration for bandwidth.>> <<@davidl5786 says : Thank you for the video . I have a question . I have a Raspberry and would like to connect it simultaneously to 2 Access points via cable . If I used an ethernet switch could it work ? For example , I have 1Ap and 2Ap , if I connected the Raspberry via cable to the ethernet switch and the other lan outputs respectively to the 2 Aps , can the devices connected to the 2 Aps communicate with the Raspberry ?>> <<@mrjonnydz says : Thanks for this info mate. Very helpful. Keep up the great work>> <<@rm5728 says : Thx very clear>> <<@olexy84 says : Will it work with Virgin HUB?>> <<@kissingjaw says : A computer Geek who actually explains things clearly in a way that us mere mortals can understand>> <<@DMP2923 says : There is a difference between rOUter and rOOter>> <<@Mr21ghostman says : what about add second router on a switch>> <<@multipotentialite says : What about PoE and PoE+?>> <<@jasondillon2567 says : Super helpful!>> <<@freepress8451 says : A really helpful video and a timely find for me. I started with the ISP's router, added an 8-Way then another and now have a 24-Way unmanaged - in background been adding NAS for backup. This week decided to move away from Pci-e DAS to NAS (better error detection). My poison:-Dell, D-link and Synology>> <<@freepress8451 says : @5:33 On that model you forgot one important feature, it is also a fingerprint magnet 😵‍💫>> <<@RajveerSingh-vf7pr says : 11:16 One doubt sir, If there are 2 nas on my router, and computer on my switch are trying to access them, Now the bandwidth will be bottle necked by router-switch gigabit connection right? Q2. Is there a way for it to use 2 port from router and 2 ports from switch and enjoy "2gigabit" network speed for router-switch connection? Is this the same as a ring network?>> <<@m.o545 says : What is the difference between the ethernet plugged directly into the modem/router and an ethernet plugged into a switch where the switch is plugged into a modem/router? Is the ethernet plugged directly to a modem/router better and more reliable and capable of plugging other devices including a switch instead of plugging all of those to a switch?>> <<@SimonHorn says : Is a patch lead different to a normal Ethernet cable? In the case where you attach a switch to wall port in garage is a different type of lead used from wall to switch in this scenario?>> <<@mihailvormittag6211 says : 👍>> <<@Marky00 says : The wifi on my room is poor. I have a cable for my ps5. With a switch can I plug in the internet cable coming into my room in to it then from the switch plug it into my ps5 and another into a wifi extender for my phone.? If not what would I need to do>> <<@cyberavater8103 says : Whats the software you used to make the shared folder?>> <<@John14vs6_ says : Can a wifi router be used a network switch? I want to connect my 2 Linux pc together. Please help. Thanks sir.>> <<@valiantvanadium6996 says : If you connect your own router to the isp modem, will it work through the switch? Or must it be a direct connection?>> <<@leeharding5865 says : Good s🎉 stuff>> <<@MrAndrewAllen says : I appreciate your videos very much, but this will not work for most of us. Where I live (in Texas,) most ISPs will lock down their routers so the routers can only provide one DHCP IP address on each RJ-45 jack. Adding more ports will not help in that case.>> <<@MIAMIC70 says : No shit. Adding a switch gives you more Ethernet ports? What a wonderfully insightful video.>> <<@PendelSteven says : Guess what? I just installed the TP-Link TL-SG105 (UN version 6.0). I needed a new one, since my old 10/100 didn't want to connect properly to my new hardware (2.5 Gbps is the least fast connection on it).>> <<@alishahrose2076 says : Very informative, thanks!>> <<@GEOsustainable says : Who uses these port hubs anymore? Takes me back to the days of melted CD's in my car.>> <<@j.macjordan9779 says : Let's say I didn't want to attach my switch to my router; instead I wanted it to facilitate communications for a basic Kubernetes cluster or something of the like - let's say I had my main PC (x86), a Win11 MS Volterra (ARM64), a pair of Jetson Nanos (ARM64), & a pair of Beelink SER5 Ryzen 5 5500U Mini PCs (x86), & I had a bigger switch, & I wanted to link all this hardware up for some reason or another. All but the Jetson Nanos would be running Windows 11 Pro (Ubuntu for the Nanos); all would technically have wifi access through their own hardware & all would have storage through their own hardware as well, thereby not absolutely needing direct Ethernet connectivity to my router, just the Network Switch. In this case, is an unmanaged switch pretty much out of the question? Because connecting them via a switch currently...none of them will even recognize one another without some effort. Is there any automatic recognition once Kubernetes is installed on one machine? Or, Would this require installing Kubernetes individually on each machine, setting static IP addresses, using the manager interface to enter all the IP addresses & then assigning various roles, etc., then deploy? And even then, would all this instead require a managed switch...? I thought it was supposed to be simple to deploy Kubernetes -- I recall Google's CEO demonstrating how easy it was at one of their tech shows by stating "Hey Google" ... "Please set up for me a Kubernetes Cluster running on this number of computers!" ...& 10s Later, Google says ~"Done." Meanwhile, I don't even talk to my devices like any lunatic might? ...I just don't understand Google; they'll probably have the software discontinued once it becomes a fairly simple install...& that could literally be this week still for all I know!>> <<@deeprai1924 says : It will be also done by using 2 or more router..using dynamic apn routrr mode..>>
