Hi! I'm looking to build my own network structure off the OnHub. That said, I'd like opinions on what I have in my notes.

150+<MBp/s connection via the [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
It supports 1GB/s. So, if i connect a RJ-45 splitter that splits it into 8 different RJ-45 sockets... like [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Everything I will connect?
4x PS3's
2x Desktops
I like having room for 2 more PS3's or two PS4's.

WiFi;
5x Phones
2x Laptops


Dude. One PS3 is mine, I live with 9 people. Its my Family. Starting colledge, i need a computer. Going for the IT-Generalist

I will connect it to the OnHub Via a Cat6 Cable(Bigger the better connection),
everything else is Cat 5e.
Note: Cat 5e is 1GB/s>
Cat 6 is aprox. 10GB/s>


According to my research, the OnHub automatically Prioritizes the ones that need it. So, I believe it can pickup the whole splitter-concept. That, Or it will prioritize the Whole Bar.. Either is a Win-Win, No?

So, My question is..
Will the OnHub successfully do all of that without Lagging the PS3's when i download an app on my android? Or Dropping a device completely to support another?

It wont drop the connection, but it may slow it down a little bit. When you have that many devices connected to a router it's going to have to do more work to route the packets from one network to another.

Also, no point in using cat 6 cable if the onhub max transfer speed is 1GB/s. You can use a cat 5e cable and still get 1GB/s speeds.
