I finally did it ! Bought a 10 Gbits network card.

(You can search prev rants on it. My internet connexion became almost unlimited and I felt that 2300 Mbits were bottlenecked by 2.5 Gbits card).

And yes, I have more speed now !!!!

Do I need it ? Nop.

But as long as my line stays in this "unlimited" mode, I want to use it !

3200 Mbits !!! Ping goes to 2 instead of 1 tho. With "old" 2.5 Gbits card I always had 1.

Edit : Added screenshot for lazy people

Can I ask how much it costs and why?
Are you hosting a server yourself?

@K-ASS It cost me 55 USD / month.

It's only via a technical error of my ISP.

Once by error, they removed the limit on my line.

I pay for 1 g down, 750 M up.

Then I got a 2.5 card and felt limited, now with 10 G I can see a limit by provider. So not ulimited, there is a hard limit lol

I don't have servers at home (Just plex, for personal use and familly).

I do not even need this type of speed, but it's fucking fun to have it

@NoToJavaScript that’s actually quite cheap, I pay the same price and only get 1/10th the speed

pardon my language,

but why

Sir I understand and respect your decision. You are a hero in my book. Let me know if it will remain in the "unlimited" mode.

@gitstashio so far still unlimited

@thebiochemic Cuase, free :) Do I need it ? Nop. Fun having it tho

@gitstashio Still the case :)

Nice, where I'm from we haven't passed the 2.5 Gb cap yet. Did you find any uses for the max internet speed?

@gitstashio Actually I'm limited by HDD speed for torrents. It's rarelly gores above 750 Mbits/s.

In my plex server I have 2 very old (more than 10 yars) HDDs a1TB each and 7200.

Also I found out the linux kernel or at least 10 Gbits driver has a memory leak.

If I let connexion run on 10 Gbits after couple of weeks I'm forced to reboot server Or maybe it's a card it self. I'm not saying I'm 100% certain it's linux, but if I switch port on router to 1 Gbit port, it does not happen.

So Most of the time i'm just running 1Gbits. To avoid rebooting server lol

But it's to know that if I want to host some app I can potentilly do it at home.
