    800G Ethernet

    I am still on gigabit ethernet. Been meaning to connect the desktop to the 10G ethernet port on my router, but I haven’t got to it.

      LMAO, you’re not alone, most of my hardware is still on 1gig even though my ISP is providing 2.5gigs to my pfsense box. I upgraded the WAN port for it and then “getting around to the rest of it” for ~6 months now 🤣

      I installed some CAT6a years ago so I could upgrade and I’m still on 1G. I should have looked at the power requirements first. The hardware that was affordable at the time used 10 watts per port to run 10G over copper. I should have run fiber too.
