I want to be able to move ripped dvd's from my pc to my htpc. I was just thinking my wireless setup is no good for this and i got the wireless because i hated running the wiring arangement in my room. So I was thinking, can I buy a gigabit switch and hook my 2 pc's to that and run another cat5/6 cable to the router, so I only have 1 wire running the length of my room which is ok. Will my pc's (both have gigabit motherboards) talk to each other at the gigabit speeds, or is there anything special to make them go that speed even though the router is 10/100? I also will hook my xbox and ps2 up to this switch as well.
