Hey,

this may be a stupid question but is it possible to connect my cable modem/router to a switch with 2 cables at once to get a higher max throughput? The modem only has 4x1Gbps port. I cant image that this is feasible but maybe there is a possibility. Otherwise my total throughput is limited to 1 Gbps although my internet has 1.2 Gbps.

And an additional question, can I connect the router/modem to any port of the switch?

Thanks

    If the router and switch both support LAGG then yes you can.

    It goes modem - router - switch - devices. Any port on the switch will work.
