Realtek's $10 tiny 10GbE network adapter is coming to motherboards later this year

3~5Gbps fiber is readily available in a lot of places. And some of us have internal networks with network attached storage and various servers running locally.

I have a NAS and servers as well. Do you have a router separate from your modem that these pass through?

I have a separate switch if that’s what you mean.

Also the NAS has 10Gbe already, I could have that plugged directly to my desktop for faster transfers until I get a 10Gbe switch.

Point being, 10Gbe at home isn’t that far fetched. I’ve had Gbe for what? 20 years?

So you have NAS to switch, switch to PC? And then that switch goes to the router/modem?

Correct

Thanks, I’ll have to consider this setup.

I’m not them, but I do. I like that my ISP does not have any equipment on my internal network.
