Hi,

Since I will hopefully soon have a fileserver running, I consider 
upgrading my LAN to Gigabit, so as to handle the load (my fileserver 
is capable of sustaining around 30MB/s from its RAID arrays).

However, there are a few things I'm a bit uncertain about:

Since I use m0n0wall as the firewall between my LAN and WAN (ADSL 
2Mbit), I guess that I don't need to equip the m0n0wall PC with a 
Gigabit NIC. This is assuming that there will not be a problem 
connecting the 100Mbit NIC in m0n0wall with a Gigabit switch. I 
further assume that the same goes for any wireless accesspoint I might 
want to use on the LAN, which would either be connected directly to 
the Gigabit switch, or to m0n0wall through a 100Mbit NIC on OPT1.

Are these assumptions correct? If not, what kind of problems should I 
be aware of and what else could I do?

I would also like to hear about any specific Gigabit hardware that is 
known to work well in conjunction with m0n0wall and/or wireless APs? 
(Switches as well as NICs)


Thanks,

Adam.
